Does a police officer have reasonable suspicion that an illegal gravity knife is illegal?

By contrast, in People v. Fernandez, 16 N.Y.3d 596, 925 N.Y.S.2d 393, 949 N.E.2d 484 (2011), decided with Brannon, the Court of Appeals held that the police officer had reasonable suspicion to believe that the knife was an illegal gravity knife. The officer had testified in Fernandez that he saw in plain view the head of a knife sticking out, clipped to defendant's front pants pocket and, based on his experience, people typically carry gravity knives in their pocket with a clip and the head protruding (id. at 601, 925 N.Y.S.2d 393, 949 N.E.2d 484 ).
