I can hear the Prosecutor say......
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" is a quotation from William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet. The thought conveyed is that in changing the name of a rose to something else will not change its scent, look or essential character.

It is still a Bowie knife. Probably case law of similar knives would trump the name.
