A concealled weapons class is a requirement in florida to get the license. I was told that even my old buck knife is concidered a concealed weapon if I carry it.

LEOs can be funny about Civilians carrying knives. If a person gets a CCW permit to carry a gun, that permit may not cover you if you carry a knife (even though both weapons are concealed). If you have a concealed weapons permit for a firearm, most LEOs will give you a break on the knife deal unless the founding father's of the city/ state are on their A$& about specific knife laws they passed years before the concealed weapons permit stuff went into effect. Make sure that you get something in writing if you carry the knife and the gun.

If there is such a place, it must be in someone's dreamland.

Just because you carry it does not mean that you have to use it.
You are just PREPARED if the NEED does arise. Being prepared is one
of the greatest feelings in the world. Like having "Life Insurance" but in
your pocket. Most people carry around a few extra pounds. Lose 3 pounds
and then carry a 2.5 lb Beretta. Your body will never notice the difference.

It's no dream.

Try pulling a gun or shooting someone anywhere but inside your home and find out. It will be a giant legal issue for you.
