> I never hear about TSA thwarting terrorist attempts. Either they keep it under wraps or nobody is trying because they perceive the security to be too high. Or they get caught before they try. One more possibility: the TSA is horribly incompetent and have a low detection rate for true-positives.

  No, I would venture that the majority of people flying with pocketknives - or even guns - arent' doing so with the intent to use them on the plane.
