Here in Austin, all the stuff that's confiscated from the security checkpoints at Bergstrom (well, most of it I suppose) goes to a government surplus store a couple miles outside of the airport. For as many cheap Gerber knives as I've turned in after forgetting to put them in my checked bag, I've purchased some really nice pocket knives at a steep discount from this shop. some require a little sharpening or de-gunking, but with the right tools that's easy enough to do and well worth the savings.
That's just anecdotal of course and I really hope you get your mom's loupe back, CS.

I'm not panicking yet. But, I lost it on June 22nd and they said they only keep things for 30 days. Pretty soon I'll start calling them everyday. of course the number they gave is one that goes straight to voice-mail.  (me trying to break through to get to my loop)

Glad it was recovered. Usually such stories end poorly.
