I was once bringing foam nunchucks to my partner. They were foam, as in pool noodle foam, and they were used for training.
I was blocked and told I'd have to check the bag. I did and missed the flight, so my partner picked up the bag (free shipping!) and I stayed home that weekend.
The TSA is such a joke. The fact that they can't even make determinations without leaving the, "The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint" disclaimer shows it's all pretend, made up bull.
