Be careful about this. Apparently the little blade is considered a concealed weapon in some states. My friend, here in California, got arrested and taken to a police station because they found one of those. They eventually let him off because they weren't realistically going to charge him for carrying around what essentially amounted to a pocket mirror, but if a cop is already pissed at you, that thing won't help.
Not sure if too much of it is particularly useful, but it's all pretty awesome stuff
Damn you! What am I ever going to do with those medieval hand blades I just spontaneously bought.
Damn it! I'm the 3rd one who ordered stuff off that site! I bought 3 things and now $80 gone just because of this thread! LOL
But seriously, I was thinking WTF about an inflatable flying shark? So then i searched it on youtube for demonstrations, and thought how badass this thing was:
Look at its tail moving so realistically! I am going to torment my neighbor's dog with this in his backyard so badly. That alone will be worth $10 right there, but I'm still $70 in the hole. FU OP!

Awkward... I actually visited my state capital about a week after this post.
I approached the entrance of the capital from a detached glass structure with some security guards armed with semiautomatic pistols, tasers and batons. Carelessly, I walked to a queue with my visiting friend. After waiting patiently, I greeted the first guard with a "Hello" and proceed to place my pocketed belongings in a plastic tray that feed a mundane looking x ray machine. I walked through the metal detector uneventfully.
Finally, they detected something questionable that looked like a blade in the x-ray and couldn't figure out what it was. I realized that it was my multi tool that I was carrying in my wallet and promptly alerted the x-ray operator of this. I then instructed her to pull out the multi tool from my wallet. Confused holding a red plastic card, I guided her to the blade. She fumbled about finding the can opener/flathead-screwdriver first until I pointed to the other tab in the card.
She found the blade and then informed me that she would have to hang on to the multi tool until I depart from the capital....
So that could have been pretty awkward if the guards had considered me to be more of a threat.

When I last flew to the UK I had my swiss multitool with me by accident. + Show Spoiler +
The girl in front of me got her nail file taken away because it was considered a weapon. My multitool was apparently less dangerous. <3

Basically, if you take a shot of vodka (completely sober) and blow into it immediately after, it think you're at least .25 or something crazy. But if you've been hammered for a while and haven't drank in say 45 minutes, it'll give you like a 0.05.
Thats exactly how police breathalyzers works though - so I would say its working as intended. The point of them is to know if the police would arrest you or not...

I can't believe they let you on a plane with that when I can't even get my shaving cream past security

When asking they told me that it's short enough (I think under 6cm) and that it doesn't has a pointed edge. Completely ignoring that it's probably easier to threaten someone with that than a nail file or something. :X ... Security works in weird ways sometimes.
Edit: I guess USA always was much rougher than this, when I first flew there (I was 2 years old) apparently the guards searched my pampers for drugs. T_T
