      Yes. I am proud (?) to say that in my US state I could legally carry a full size functional Master Sword, or any other sword, on my belt or strapped to my back provided I didn’t brandish it at anyone without due cause.

      It would technically be illegal to conceal without a permit, though, which raises some interesting logistical questions.
