Really? It's still a knife? You mean, it didn't magically transform into a unicorn because of the context? That sucks.
Years ago, my friend mistakenly left her butter knife that she uses to slice bagels at work in her bag as she went to the airport. It was detected by the powers that be. Instead of detaining her as a potential terrorist and damning her to hell, the airport authorities used their discretion. They took the object and gave her a stern talking to/warning that scared the shit out of her. Then sent her on her way. Message.
