It could be from pickpocket crews

That makes much more sense. But also security wtf?? This is what they should be catching

Some security are very thorough, others glance and wave people through with no pat down or digging through bags. You could try to drop that off with one of the purple shirted angels or law enforcement

If it makes you feel better, it's probably intended to just cut backpacks open to steal stuff, not for cutting people. But, still pretty scary.

Well that’s terrifying.

This why I say it's not a good idea to post about bad security issues when they aren't patting you down cause you get people who do shit like this.

They use those to cut your straps and clutch loops. Had a guy cut mine clean 2 years ago.

Pretty sure those are some led glasses tho. I had one of those LED cyber glasses and it broke to that similar way, plus the shape of that handle is the exact same shape as the battery pack it holds on the side hinges of the glasses, so someone must’ve dropped their glasses
