Concealed Knife

This "hairbrush" is sold as a personal defense tool. When the head of the brush is removed, a pointed dagger made of hard plastic is revealed. This potential weapon can be easily overlooked. Be sure to closely inspect hairbrushes for removable heads.

Law Enforcement and Security Personnel should be aware of this method of concealing weapons.
