text: Why dont you contact the SCA and ask them...Since they are into a hobby where a lot of peple carry swords in public they should know. Be aware there might be local laws against this (Colorado being left of everybody, they might not like people runnung around with pointy things) When I g0 back to illinois and dont know if I can drive or hunt or whatever, I call the STATE POLICE and ask them. Since cops are the ones who would bust you for doing somthing you think is ok, they are happy to tell you BEFORE you do somthing wrong, as they hate paperwork.
