Conversely, I always used to fly with a very large pocketknife in my pocket. It came in handy. Once (pre-9/11) they were holding our flight for a maintainer to come fix a broken part and I pulled out my very large knife and fixed their problem so we could get takeoff on time. The flight attendants brought me free drings the entire flight.
I quit carrying the knife in my pocket after 9/11 and seemed to have misplaced it. After my last flight, I was unpacking and found the knife...still in a zippered pocket of my carry-on. TSA had never caught it.

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
