The knives confiscated at the airport end up being auctioned off in lots
on ebay. You can find them easy if you look.
Oddly, even though used recent production knives usually sell for dirt
on ebay, something about the confiscated stuff brings high bids. Way
higher than I would go anyway.
Fortunately, unless you are running late, TSA has become much more
sympathetic and will try to help you keep your knife if there is a chance.
Padded mailers on the counter they haven't thought of yet (super idea Ed)
but the impoliteness that once accompanied a man losing his knife, is
gone.
They'll hold it for you up front so you can go back around, retrieve it,
and walk it to your car. Then come back through security.
yours Scott
