[SML] TSA compliant" multitool

[James D Smith, RC4 Wireless]

Oddly, they do NOT take wine corkscrews that do not have a foil cutting 
knife.  It's in the TSA rules that they're allowed!  So... the long 
curly thing with a pointed end has been deemed not dangerous, while the 
short knife thing is.

I have proven this several times, with a corkscrew that has been found 
and examined by several TSA people over the last couple of years.  So 
far, they always give it back. Sometimes with a smile!
