The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday on public auctions of confiscated tools—apparently several thousand airplane travelers every year approach security checkpoints with hammers, circular saws, nail guns, and such. The TSA takes the items and states sell them off at discounts even deeper than Tool King.

Your fellow travelers' loss could be your toolbox's gain—I just placed a $14 bid on a carry-on Leatherman.
