As ethical, law-abiding hunters we seek to comply with the rules and regulations each wildlife agency promulgates, and as such this means hunting with a knife would be a statutory violation of the law.
That means we'd be in trouble. With the law. Not prudent.
Surely you don't recommend we violate the law. Since this is your ideal of hunting, I recommend you petition the Virginia Game and Inland Fisheries Dept. for just such a license. Please let us know when you're successful and when you're available to show us how to successfully hunt in your preferred manner.
