Flying with a cutter.

I take a soft flame bic, along with a cheap cutter or punch in my carry-on and so far I've never had a problem. I usually just toss them in the Cigar Caddy with the cigars.

As others have said though, I'd never take anything expensive that I wouldn't want to lose. You just never know what these TSA people will do.

I always put my cutter in my checked luggage and never had a problem. My wife carries one in her purse and has been stopped only once by TSA and had to explain to them that it was a cigar cutter. They thought it was really neat and showed it to the rest of the TSA staff and then let her get on the plane with it.
