I'm definitely suspicious:

but then I'm always suspicious of '.org' domains which appear to be run along commercial lines.

They have those type sites over here as well. They're normally true in the respect that the info on them is usually accurate. BUT!! They usually charge you to find real government sites that you could find for free your self.

i go through airport security 6 or 7 times a day at least (working there)! it is very much luck of the draw and who is on duty... my first week i left y sak in the rucksack i took to work, it was taken off me by a guy i spoke to a few times and was told to collect it on the way home...

today however my brand new titanium spork was taken aswell nothing with a pointed metal edge it seems is the new rule. back to eating pasta with a spoon!

Safest to assume it would be and either leave it at home or pack in hold luggage or run the risk of losing it forever

Technically and legal is no match against a carriers rules...

If they say no blades on your person whilst you fly with them then you've one of 2 choices... bin it or kiss goodbye to your flight

Surely (if you have time) you can turn round post it to the house and join the queue again?

Assuming there's a post box in the airport (and packaging, and a place to buy postage) Unfortunately that's not usually the case.
