It breaks Mr C&C ’s heart when he has to be detached from his trusty Swiss Army Knife to board a plane. (he’s a couch Bear Grylls) Maybe they’ll come up with a ceramic one so that we can both fly happy!

No need to give up the surgical career. You can buy knives with ceramic blades now that don’t show up on the xray for that impromptu airline surgery. I do hope no terrorists have just read that .

I’m alsways rather taken with the idea of having to perform an emergency chest drain with a penknife and the outer of a biro or somesuch. (not on myself though)
I can do it. I always watch carefully on planes waiting for someone to start gasping so that I can leap into action with my quickly sharpened plastic knife and a drinking straw. Count down the ribs, mark the spot……. IN.
