Can someone take this tool to school since it is TSA approved?

Depends... if a liberal sees it I'm sure SWAT would be on scene within minutes.

Personally I wouldn't. These days there's zero tolerance for anything that may be construed as a "weapon" on or near school grounds it seems. When I was in high school 15+ years ago I had a Leatherman in my car but I wouldn't dare these days. College I carried a pocketknife with a blade less than 3" but also carried the university policy page in my backpack where it stated knives under 3.5" may be carried by students just in case I was called on it.

There's no blade on it so there's really nothing dangerous about it, but you'd likely still need to check with your specific school's policy.

I believe that would depend on the school district. Each is different. My daughter teaches at a school in ranch country where everyone carrys some kind of knife and rifles are kept in their trucks. That would not work in a city school district run by liberals now would it. Check with the school.

Elliot is correct, it may get scrutinized, I was told it was very dense and the TSA would appreciate it being taken out of your bag and placed separately like a laptop. I started doing that and now have no problem.

Only if they have the key. When I shipped my firearms to AK this summer, I followed the airlines instructions about putting them in my luggage. The went there and came back without an issue. I used a nylon fastener to secure my luggage. The case is fiberglass and may be x-rayed, why would the TSA need access, thereby leaving you liable to theft by airline employees etc.? You need to further study the regulations.

No guarantees on this ever since TSA agents in different airport can interpret these rules differently, but I've been able to cruise through without removing it. If the KB is detached your chances are much better.

I wouldn't chance it, it may get confiscated. I normally pack this in my check in luggage. I think the rule of thumb to carry on is 2-1/4" blade or less. Your best bet is to check the TSA website. Hope this helps.

I cannot think of a reason why security would not allow this cane. You can probably call your airlines or the TSA to make sure.

packed in checked luggage, it is just another tool. traveling service people check tools and supplies every day.Do Not ever try to board with it on your belt! I lost two of them before I learned...

TSA is absurd so I can't say. They once took a can opener from me. That said, this knife is little more than a dedicated seat belt cutter, so if they ask say it's a safety device. It's odd enough looking to be overlooked, and cheap enough to easily replace if they do take it.

I'm not positive about this but I'm guessing it is not TSA approved because of the knife and fire starter.

I recommend going to the TSA website and thoroughly reading the rules located here: http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/prohibited-items.

Yes you may use that with Check bags.TSA has master keys to open it,if they need to.you can keep your key.

I've seen on TSA.gov website under prohibited items,a long list of items. Maybe that will help.

TSA agents are trained and tested daily to catch "Wallet Knives" on the xray. This looks like a wallet knife so their search is justified. When they see that it is not a knife then it will be ok. If they say its not ok than they are wrong and you can ask to speak to a supervisor or manager. If you have this on you when you go through security, you should know they are going to search it, so common sense should tell you to take it out and place it in a bowl so they see it without going through your belongings. It also says box "opener" not box "cutter"

All I can say is that it is more sturdy than some cases I know are TSA approved, so it SHOULD be, but the TSA is sometimes hard to satisfy and can be fickle. They may not accept it because it uses a combo rather than a key. I'd contact the airline or TSA directly if you have any doubt.

This has a TSA lock. I know they have been able to open and then relock it based on the notification they leave when they have checked the contents.

I've made it through every TSA checkpoint (think USA) with this tool (I've flown close to 100,000 miles this year). The exception here is international checkpoints. This tool will NOT pass through security in Costa Rica - they will confiscate it, they have mine.

I have not tried personally, but the package clearly states that it "Meets TSA airline firearm guidelines"...I hope this helps.
