Darth Vader doesn’t use knives.
Workers at the Philadelphia International Airport discovered a woman seemingly attempting to sneak two knives through airport security. Apparently, the woman had chosen a truly unique hiding spot.
TSA Spokesperson Lisa Farbstein confirmed on Twitter that a woman traveling through the Philadelphia airport was caught with two knives hidden inside a Darth Vader teddy bear. TSA officers said that the back of the stuffed animal appeared to have been resewn shut.
The doll belonged to the woman’s 9-year-old son.

TSA officers noticed the back of the bear appeared to have been resewn. Toy belonged to a 9-year-old boy traveling with his mom."
