"Blade found in passenger's shoe"
By Mike Leidemann
Advertiser Transportation Writer
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A Virginia man traveling to Kaua'i with his wife and four children was arrested yesterday at Honolulu International Airport after security officials said they found a three- to four-inch box cutter blade concealed in his shoe.
Randall Rustick, 33, was arrested after a screener X-raying his possessions saw a metal object in the shoe and became suspicious, said Sidney Hayakawa, federal security chief for the airport."

"Man with blade held"
By Rosemarie Bernardo

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The Stafford-brand, size 10 1/2, black dress shoes looked common enough.
But it was the box-cutter blade glued inside one of the shoes that caught the attention of security personnel at Honolulu Airport's Interisland Terminal yesterday."
Excellent! Thanks for following up.
My gut tells me he might be one of those people who wants to tweak the feds by proving that the screening is inadequate. I'll bet he was planning on leaving the blade where some cleanup crew would find it and report it.
