ABSTRACT:
A probe for safely searching pockets for sharp or otherwise dangerous objects comprises a probe having a smooth and rounded tip attached to a flashlight. In use, the probe is inserted into portions of the suspect's clothing where potentially dangerous objects may be hidden. Objects are located by the sound generated when the probe contacts the object. Identification of the object is facilitated with the aid of the attached flashlight. The probe aids law enforcement personnel who must search criminal suspects for sharp objects such as knives, razor blades, and hypodermic needles which may be hidden in the suspect's pockets, clothing seams and so forth.
