When I travel to DR, I typically only take a carry on. I had been eating -really- healthy thanks to my Nutri Bullet (which works like a charm btw), so I figured let me take one to DR with me....yea riiiight! TSA agents put an end to that!
The TSA went completely ape **** with just seeing my blender. He stated the blade is dangerous without even looking at it. It is a non-standard blade...ANYONE who looks at it can see it is totally benign (check the pic below). When he actually looked at it, he was just puzzled, but then stuck to his guns. I asked for a supervisor, who ultimately did the same.
I asked the supervisor, do you think I can attack someone with a blender base? Just try to picture it! I can be 10x more successful at killing someone with the 5 inch screwdriver that you allow me to take on-board (which I produced)...deaf ears and bye bye went my blender blade.
I had no choice but to buy blender when I arrived...uggghh. So NOT the same result at all! I subsequently went off my diet and felt like one of those hollywood stars just outta rehab and ready to do damage! Now a whole month later I am -now- getting back on the wagon!
Here is a pic, you can see the blade:
