Here in ND, it's called a Concealed Weapon Permit, and type is listed as: Firearm & Dangerous Weapon. So, basically, we carry whatever we want (knives, swords, nunchucks, machetes...). It's a good state to live in.

Well, It gets really cold, but yea... The laws are better...
In MA it's a license to carry firearms. It gives the bearer no other right to self protection via another weapon. So I do carry a knife, but most of the time it's the smaller one (less than 3" blade)...
Peace..
You can give peace a chance alright..
I'll seek cover in case it goes badly..
In Michigan it's a CPL or Concealed Pistol Permit although many people refer to it as a CCW or carry concealed weapon permit. I favor the TDI Ka Bar and I carried it on my gear for a couple of years until somehow it was lost. It's illegal to carry it here in MI as a civilian though, since you have to carry a folding knife unless you're going hunting.
Kentucky has good weapons laws too. Its worded a "Concealed Deadly Weapon License"
List of items covered by Kentucky Permit
* Any weapon from which a shot, readily capable of producing death or serious physical injury, may be discharged.
* Any knife other than an ordinary pocket knife or hunting knife.
* Billy, nightstick, or club.
* Blackjack or slapjack.
* Nunchaku karate sticks.
* Shiriken or death star.
* Artificial knuckles made from plastic, or other similar hard material.
That's definitely better than Washington. It's pretty silly that I can wear my .45 just fine, but can get in trouble for the working knife I carry every day -- or even two sticks tied together...
Gee, I noticed I have both Kathleen's Woodman's Pal and my Gerber machete in the back of the Jeep today; that probably makes me some sort of terrorist....

I've had a AFCK Mini for years. I bought that when airlines decided that a 3" blade was the max they allowed you to carry. I also have a fixed blade knife, but darned if I remember what it's called. Last, a Vex which was cheap to buy and is a plain edge.
I just bought a Barrage plain edge with assisted opening. I cannot tell you much about it yet. Benchmade is hard to beat. That said, the little SOG Pentagon is a pretty nice knife and I do carry it now and then, though it is not as inconspicuous. S2...
