I've been carrying the same Swiss Army knife around for about 30
years...

Mine disappeared into the #$@%cking hands of the TSA idiocy.
Yes it probably could have been used as a weapon, but still - here is an
elderly guy who likes to peel his oranges with a knife ...

I took a trip with Mom and she got doublesearched for her (blunt
nosed) sewing scissors. I sailed through the inspection with a
sharpened 9" pencil 18" from the TSA inspector's eye, in my shirt
pocket. My Victorinox had to be in checked luggage, as did my 4"
Crescent wrench, my 5' blade/philips electronics screwdriver, my
fingernail clippers, and some other tools.

I feel much safer now that babies can't have their sterile bottles on
the airplane, don't you? sigh
