I dunno did he also have the tools to access it while in the airport etc?

Interesting how it's a civil penalty since it's wildly anti 2A.

i guess the laptop was being worked on and the knife got stuck the the double sided tape. The tech didnt noticed and closed up the laptop

Did you read the article?

"the owner initially claimed he knew nothing about a knife in his laptop but then confirmed it was his blade after the laptop was opened.

Since he cant have a screw driver how would he open it mid air?

You don't want to know where he smuggled the screwdriver.

Bash it against "something" until you've cracked the case open?

Screwdrivers (shorter than 7 inches)

Carry On Bags: Yes Checked Bags: Yes Tools 7 inches or shorter (measured from end to end when assembled) are allowed in carry-on baggage.

You'd be very, very surprised what's actually allowed sometimes. For example...

Carry On Bags: ! Yes (Special Instructions) Checked Bags: Yes

Empty shell casings are allowed in carry-on bag as long as the projectile is no longer intact. They are allowed only if the primer has been removed or has been discharged. If the projectile is attached & the powder has been drilled out, it is considered a replica and not allowed in carry-on. !The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.

Finally the TSA prevented something from being smuggled on to an air plane besides my water bottle.

"Why did you carelessly throw that bottle into the bin of contraband? Aren't you worried it'll explode?"
"C'mon man, it's just a bottle of water!"

Sure looks like tweezers or a tool used in manufacturing laptops to me.

Tweezers on the RAM. Look again at the arrow in the top picture.

I would have been griping about all that dust and miss anything else. i smoke, so I clean my fans often. Also have repaired other people computers to see some horribly dirty cases.

I've had a bit of a mixture of mirth and disgust when telling people about their spider problem, or the time I had to tell a broad she needed to get mousetraps or an exterminator for her office.

It's the last resort buff for when your party wipes in Naxramas. You rip the cover off and stab the fucking screen.

Guy probably hid the dagger in there to defend himself, in case the plane got hijacked.
