Many senior travelers are being caught in security checkpoints because of hidden swords in their canes.

It seems that lots of seniors buy canes at Good Will or flea markets and are unaware of hidden swords inside the cane.

The Wall Street Journal reports Since 2002, TSA screeners have found more than 200 canes concealing either swords or knives. Many of these incidents involve elderly travelers who are just as surprised as the security screeners to find sabers hidden inside canes they may have inherited, found at antique shops, or received from charities. In September alone, four such incidents occurred according to documents provided by the TSA.
