When I flew a couple weeks ago, I had my cutter on my carry on. They saw it on the x-ray and had to check it to make sure you can't separate it and use it as a blade. Also, in Canada you are allowed to carry on bic lighters, but not torch lighters.

I'm back!
In case you do decide to bring it on as a carry-on - print out the TSA web information. Doesn't matter if it's policy or not, if the TSA agent doesn't know about it - they have final say.
Also - since I know you have a zippo - if you get one of these, you can bring it - prefilled - as checked baggage:

I can attest that you can definitely bring them on. They are on the permitted items list for TSA and I have been on several flights lately where I carried on a palio and a xikar respectively.
Yeah
Thank you Lopaka for that good news! I don't plan on checking any stuff, but thanks for the idea Maui. I've actually seen them around and thought about it, but I want to get throught the terminal as fast as I can get off of the plane. Anyway, I'll make sure I have the TSA stuff printed out and on hand when I go through security.

The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done." -unknown

I always bring some really long cigar matches and my punch cutter with me when I travel. Yeah, matches can be a pain in the ass, but it's also pretty cool. I can imagine in my own head that I'm John Wayne lighting a stogie.
There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.
