I am 14 and live in Peoria, AZ and there are liquer stores all over that will sell brass knuckles (although they aren't brass they are stainless steel) to anyone, including minors because they consider them "belt buckles" or "heavy duty paper weights." i own 2 pairs that i bought from the store and i told them i was under 18 and they said "Its not a weapon, its a paper weight."

Brass (metal) knuckles are NOT illegal to buy or possess in AZ. They ARE considered a "deadly weapon", so the same rules for carrying a gun apply. That is the problem: The only way you can legally open carry any deadly weapon is a "belt holster" or "in a scabbard or case designed for carrying weapons". I've never seen a holster for knucks. Knucks in a pistol rug would technically satisfy the law. Note that Phoenix prohibits SELLING knuckles within city limits.

I have been a cutlery dealer for 28 years. 14 years in Arizona. One may sell "Brass" knuckles but the moment a customer purchases them they have committed a misdemeanor. If they then conceal it they have committed a felony. Also, the type of material from which they are made has no bearing on the lethality of the item. Even plastic "Knucks" are illegal to possess. But here is where it gets odd. An adult can own and carry Trench Knives in AZ. Trench Knives are basically Brass Knuckles with a "skull buster" on one end and a blade on the other. Some AZ weapons laws make no sense at all.
