Pretty sure if I was gonna get a weapon on board, I wouldn't spend at least 20,000 to get switch blade key... and if i did, it would have to be sanded to a point first... and pretty sure I'd be okay with it if they were taking those away... as previously stated... these keys are rectangular... as in no sharp edges... the old Audi key (96' era) had a decent sized grip, and would be a much better weapon...

The TSA will have to adapt to this, as once again, the key is a rather unique design & not that common....

I went back up to my first post that I wrote, just to make sure that I was not going crazy.

maybe the TSA guy is a retired UAW worker who needed extra cash so TSA picked him up part-time. and now he's just trying to get everyone to buy American by making anyone with a European car key step out of line at airport security and embarass them by declaring any and all German car keys as deadly weapons. it could happen
