Re: Flying with a cutter.
Play it safe & check it all. If you ask or question them in the wrong way you might be considered a flight risk. Believe me when I tell you they will make you miss your flight. You are at their mercy & most of the TSA agents actually think & believe they are GOD & what they say & think goes. They are miserable at best... :2

I usually mail my knife where I need to be. That way I can have it at my destination for ~$6. Or travel by car, airplanes now a days are like prison searches. |
Re: Flying with a cutter.
Flying with a cutter and a bic in my carry-on has not been a problem in the US. I have had to toss the bic once on the way back from China. Torches are not permitted and lighters are not allowed in checked baggage. Matches are also not prohibited. We you are outside of the US rules vary but cigar cutters are generally OK.
That being said my Xikar and Palio cutter stay home and a throw away cutter with a bic are what I take when I travel. |

Re: Flying with a cutter.
The cutter shouldn't be a problem.
The Ronson will not pass. Either go with a Bic OR mail the Ronson to your destination & it will be waiting for you upon arrival. |
Re: Flying with a cutter.
I've actually brought a butane torch on before forgetting it was in my bag... great job airport security! lol
You probably won't have a problem with the cutter though, and if you do almost any drugstore will have a cheap cutter next to their Dr Grabow pipes aj |
Re: Flying with a cutter.
Good info, I hadnt even thought about it.
My wife and I are going to Jamaica in Sept, and I was going to take my xikar, but I think I just changed my mind lol... |

Re: Flying with a cutter.
Well, they didn't bother with my throw away cutter both ways. They did check my lighter to make sure it was a soft flame on the way there. On the way back I put it right in the bucket and they didn't look at it. Thanks for all the input guys.

Re: Flying with a cutter.
So you can have a soft flame but not a torch....that makes no sense to me.
