Is this legal to carry in California?

Let's cut through the "cute BS" and try to answer the question. The following is an excerpt from CA Law. I've purchased four of this type of folding knive; carry one in our three Bug-out bags in our vehicles and one on my person. I've asked our local PD about them, and they said there was no problem with the 'type' I had. All were purchased in CA at Knife Shows (not that I would solely trust them.) The ones purchased have a rear serrated blade a front regular blade (that needs some serious sharpening, and a sezt-belt blade, that unless the belt is pulled very tight is pretty much useless. Knife Enthusiasts Guide to California Knife Laws 2018 California Law Defines a switchblade knife to mean: KEEP ON READING TO THE EXCEPTION IN THE LAW. THE KNIFE YOU WANT MAY BE LEGAL. The last sentence seems to be the definitive key in this determination. “a knife having the appearance of a pocketknife and includes a spring-blade knife, snap-blade knife, gravity knife, or any other similar type knife, the blade or blades of which are two or more inches in length and which can be released automatically by a flick of a button, pressure on the handle, flip of the wrist or other mechanical device, or is released by the weight of the blade or by any type of mechanism whatsoever. “Switchblade knife” does not include a knife that opens with one hand utilizing thumb pressure applied solely to the blade of the knife or a thumb stud attached to the blade, provided that the knife has a detent or other mechanism that provides resistance that must be overcome in opening the blade, or that biases the blade back toward its closed position.”

Can the searbelt cutter blade be removed and shapened or changed out?

Yes, it absolutely can. The screws you see in the pictures listed are driven into a post from both sides. Remove the screws from both sides and the entire knife, with the exception of the speedsafe mechanism, comes apart. This will give you access to the seatbelt cutter, glass breaker, blade, and scales. The opening mechanism can be accessed by removing the 3 (if I remember right) screws on the inside of one of the scales. I have had mine apart and I personally sharpened the seatbelt cutter... It's worth noting that the cutter doesn't seem like it is hardened. It's essentially 2 very thin pieces of sheet metal and dulls very quickly.

what is dangerous that there is a legal disclaimer?

I would hesitate to answer for Kershaw’s lawyers, but as a customer and a frequent knife user, I love it. However, for a knife newbie, the assisted open can be dangerous. You have to have a good sense of where and how your knife will open. If you are familiar with knives of any sorts this is a good blade. It is simple, easy to deploy and put away, and effective in its use.

Is it ambidiestrous ??

To open, yes. To close it, it's much easier to close in your right hand, using your thumb to push down the liner lock and your index finger to fold the blade down past the liner.
