My reaction was more like "about time!" Has anyone had any problems taking standard EMT shears on board under the new rules. The cutting blades on mine are under 4", but the over-all length is more like 6". Craig.

I am so tired of the TSA and its special brand of lunacy. Its all about "feel good" politics with little attention to logical protective measures. Remember when you couldn't take a simple bottle of water on a plane. It only took two weeks of real life experience to prove that policy a complete shambles. And there are example after example of similar failed policies... ... Personally, I am tired of traveling "naked." YMMV. Craig. amen to that. i'm so accustomed to carrying at least a pound of EDC that walking around with just a wallet and cell phone, as in an airport, feels almost as strange as not wearing clothing. _________________________ Originally Posted By: scafool Camping teaches us what things we can live without.
