Great! This will cause even more joy for fencers traveling. Imagine getting your gear from the airline and finding all of your weapons have been disassembled!  Fail until you succeed!

Haha, I can see it now. The worldwide fencing drug-smuggling conspiracy being born on f.net...I'm in! Think about someone you know of "average" intelligence. Then think that half the world is dumber than that.

They fit over a pound and a half of heroin inside a hollowed out blade????
Just how think were these blades?

More than one blade for all those drugs. The way I understood it was that was in 25 blades.
At least I finally know how to support my fencing habit...by feeding off someone else's! Some people are like slinkys. They serve no useful purpose, but it sure feels good when you push them down the stairs.

{snip} Rereading it, I can see that could be the case.
But in that case, their $ value seems to be incredibly overrated.
The price for a kilogram of heroin is on the order of $50,000 - $60,000 in the US.
Even cut and sold in 1/3 gram dosages, 740 grams wouldn't to get you more than a couple of hundred thousand dollars, at most.
Is Heroin that much more expensive in the Netherlands?

Maybe they were valuing it in ducats? Or guilders? Or whatever currency they use in Denmark? (Krona?)
And this raises an interesting side question: How do you know so much about the street value of heroin, Philistine? Nothing is more frightening than ignorance in action.
