Knives
I wonder if knives are arms. No matter, I think people should be allowed to own them. In comments, KCSteve points us to United States Knife & Tool Association:
The United States Knife & Tool Association (USKTA) is proposed to serve knife and tool owners as their advocate against restrictions on knife and tool ownership and carry. Many industry insiders believe that knife owners are too apathetic, that until they see local or state laws proposed to restrict their freedoms, they won’t do anything; that this effort is doomed to failure. They may be right. What I know is that if we don’t try, it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy.
SayUncle supports the right to own and carry slashy and pointy things.

I think Saul Cornell made a pretty convincing argument in his interview with Diane Reihms that knives are covered by the 2nd Amendment. Not his intention, of course (which is to ban guns) but still he said arms covered much more than simply the militias guns
