uBoat509,
Joe's point is this:
If only cops are allowed to have a certain knife or article and that cop who is deep undercover has that knife or article found on them when searched by a bad guy, bad guy has found proof he's got a cop.
Result: Cover compromised or blown, cop is at high personal risk of injury or death and all the police work on that investigation is flushed down the toilet.

Word on the street travels at light speed and bad guys find out what cops carry and use, especially if that item is restricted to law enforcement only.
