Automatic knives (switchblades and OTF knives) are generally illegal to possess and carry in New York State. Under NY Penal Law § 265.01, they are classified as per se weapons, and simple possession is considered a misdemeanor. NYC.

However, there is a specific exemption for licensed sportsmen: Licensed Hunters & Fishermen: You may possess and carry an automatic knife if you have a valid NY hunting, trapping, or fishing license, but only while actively engaged in those activities or traveling directly to and from them. American Knife and Tool Institute

Spring-Assisted Knives: Courts in New York have previously classified some spring assisted folding knives (where the blade opens via a manual flipper and spring mechanism) as switchblades, so they carry a significant legal risk and can result in arrest.
