My God!  It's a tool!  The fact that the Terrorist Support Activity (TSA)
considers it a "weapon" is undoubtedly the statement being made.  One has to
open any tool, including a blade, to use it for its purpose.  Be reasonable.

I personally think it would violate the rules of what should be in a cache.
I pulled out my "Idiot's Guide to Geocaching" and it lists Knives or weapons
specifically. The fact that the TB owner states "Remember you can't take
Micra in your carry-on for air travel" on its home page shows that they KNOW
it is a weapon. I looked at all the logs and didn't see where anybody had
questioned the TB safety factor, but at those logs could have been deleted
too. That's my two cents worth.
