Just got back from a Carribean cruise. SOBs confiscated my SAK! Said it was a weapon. It has like 37 tools on it and only 2 of them happen to have a sharp edge!
Weapon! Pfft! I could have brought a indisputable weapon.
Security at boarding didn't bat an eye at it. It was re-boarding after a shore excursion that some lackey decided to save the world. I said "'scuse me? You are full of it." He assured me the knife would be safe and to his credit it was returned on disembarking. Buttheads.
They got a nastygram on their comment card about their kneejerk policy of 'any blade is a bad blade' and the fact that insinuating that a man would use a knife like that for evil would get you a buttwhomping where I come from and that no-one was safer in any way due to such an overarching policy....
When my knife was 'being processed' and placed in a drawer I did happen to notice a rather sizable fixed blade fighter with a gray powder finish in with all the cigar cutters. Good company.
Just a heads up in case anyone is thinking of hijacking a cruise ship with their fearsome-favored-by-terroristas-all-in-one Swiss Army Knife. :grumpy: :grumpy: :grumpy:
