I never thought I would see this, but the TSA has changed its rules.
effective April 25, 2013 TSA will allow knives that do not lock, and have blades that are 2.36 inches or 6 centimeters or less in length and are less than 1/2 inch in width
That means I don't have to remember to take my little leatherman squirt off my keychain any more.

What about knitting needles?
Oh it's a slippery slope. How long before they allow these?

I think they are confused "contoured" with molded. Although, every shape has a contour...

Good God.
Looks like something half my clientele would carry if they could.

Uhh, exactly what kind of doctor are you again?:eyebrow:
Hm. Probably said too much ... more accurately, I am at times the bearer of unwelcome news that can result in colorful threats and/or acting out.
I'm thrilled, because when I fly I like to keep myself calm by whittling. They put the kibosh on my chain-saw bears, but a couple whistles or frogs can't possibly bother anybody.
Again, a slippery slope, infi. It's another short hop to linked chains and balls in cages...
I think insanity that obvious would trip a Sky Marshall intervention... hmm... sequestration probably reduces the threat of that. Don't tell Al Q.
What if you whittled a bigger knife, then used that to whittle a gun? They just haven't thought this through.
That'll teach the airlines to not let full planes sit on the tarmac for hours.

Likewise good news for others:
