The strangest part was when they discovered the screw driver stuck in the seam of the bottom of the camera bag, they opened up the bag of the guy behind me and on top of his clothes he had a bowie knife about 20" long.
They just took the knife and waived the guy on.
That screwdriver must have been in the bag for years and traveled around the world a few times before PEK.
