Thanks would really appreciate it if you help me out.
Reading the description of the first knife, it is NOT spring loaded, but opens with a thumb stud. So long as there is some resistance which has to be overcome to open the knife, it is legal under Pen C 653k. All the other knives are legal as well.
There are no laws generally regulating knives by length in California. There are some for specific locations such as airports, schools and colleges, and government buildings. Fixed blade knives cannot be carried concealed on the person, nor can folding knives in a fixed, open position.
However, there may be some local regulations which are applicable. You should check to see if there are city or county laws. I do not believe that they are enforceable, but you should probably avoid being the one to test them.
