Does anyone know if there is a problem having this in carry-on for a flight?

I've carried mine in my carry-on for years and through international borders without a second glance. HOWEVER, I just had it refused this month in a flight from Canada, because of the serrated edge. I'll still keep on taking it and the odds are with me but it's not guaranteed.

It's allowed by TSA, unless of course you just get an officer who doesn't know the rules. In which case you should ask for a supervisor.

I carry mine in my backpack on at least 1 flight a week and in hundreds of flights never been an issue...

I would call the Airline you are traveling on and ask. I took it through security and didn't have any problem, but things change all the time.

I haven't used it on a plane as of yet. However, I don't see it being a problem. I will be taking mine on my trip in September.

Yes, I flew with it both domestically and internationally. It'll have to go through the security scanner of course, but you shouldn't have any issues from security about it. I cannot imagine the airlines would complain since it can easily fit on top of or below suitcases in the overhead compartments, especially if you have a medical reason for needing it. But worst case they will gate-check it for free...

It has been my experience that there is no problem as long as the blade is out (obviously you must not carry the blade in your carry on), in fact the few times I've forgotten to remove it TSA has taken it out for me. I fly about 25 times a year.

I have not. Whether it would be suitable or not would depend on what you are putting in carry on.

Yes. There is no issue with packing it in the checkin, as long as it is properly wrapped. However, I would recommend taking it in the carry on, to be sure. But, it's entirely up to you how to pack and carry it.

I would reccomend checking with TSA to make sure the item is not on the no fly list.

i did just that. used it as my carry on on a domestic flight to veil co...though as it is also my normal camping pack i checked and double checked that i hadn't left a knife or magnesium stick or anything "dangerous" inside.*edit* seeing the other comment i wanted to clarify, i flew out on American Airlines, and returned on Continental. so i know it fit in their o'head compartments

No, not at all. I have placed it in my jacket pocket as well as a carry-on and no problems whatsoever.

I cant say for sure, but I know that I would not try to bring it on a flight. Look on the TSA website - they have a page of confiscated items.

Yup.. I take it on planes even when fully extended.. The couple of flights that I took it on had the overhead bins connected to each other, so I think it overlapped from one bin to another. I can't remember though.. It depends on the airline and the size of the plane (I flew delta, and I had no problem at all)P.S. I was never asked to check it in.. I always take it as a carry on. You don't want it to get cracked

I have used it as carry-on. It does depend on how full it is packed, I suppose. But I had no problem.

I know of no reason this would not be allowed in carry on luggage. They might not like it in checked luggage though.http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct;=j&q;=&e;src=s&source;=web&cd;=3&ved;=0CGcQFjAC&url;=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.faa.gov%2Fabout%2Foffice_org%2Fheadquarters_offices%2Fash%2Fash_programs%2Fhazmat%2Fpassenger_info%2Fmedia%2Ffaa_airline_passengers_and_batteries.pdf&ei;=IeWEU8j-E8y8oQSBnIKgDQ&usg;=AFQjCNF_FDnN8cHYYWSayTlXx4UjFjF9aQ&sig2;=hOHJEccAfQXxylDyXPor1w&bvm;=bv.67720277,d.cGU&cad;=rja

I have had no problems with mine at all. I even took it apart, put it in my suitcase and took it on vacation with me. Put it back together there and when I returned home. I use it everyday and have had no issues at all.
