Carrying Cutters on Planes?

[MMAB]

I just flew down to Florida last week and I had been wondering the same thing about cigar cutters.

A sign posted at the security check said "No cutting devices of any kind allowed".

Just flew back and forth from Florida to NJ, and talked to the tobacconists in NJ...any cutters are okay as long as they're in checked baggage, and they just modified the rules again to allow butane lighters in checked luggage providing they have been drained of butane and are empty, at least that's what I was told by a cigar store owner, who said they get the latest bulletins regarding this stuff, from the Feds...
