This is a state law issue and this site has links to the laws in all 50 and that cesspool known as DC. Hope that helps, some of the laws rely on common sense.

As a general rule of thumb a concealed blade should conform to the following: no assistant opener of any sort (spring, gravity, catch, butterfly, etc.), blade length of about 3", non-serrated, and single edged. If you are ever approached by an officer you should tell them that you have a small utility knife and where it is located on your person or you could be booked for serious charges.
