Lighters can go into checked bags if they are in the proper approved TranzPack type case, but not carry on. I see poker posted that this is not currently the case and soft flame lighters are OK. Given the ubiquitous nature of these lighters in CCs, I wouldn't bother with taking one.

Cutters .... well, as far as I can tell, things are so variable that you might get a cutter through 2 screenings and have it confiscated at the third. No need to take the risk, bring a punch or do what MRN does and bite the cap off.
