All tools (blunt or sharp) or sharp objects and even the mercury clinical thermometer must be placed in checked baggage. Only scissors and tweezers with a maximum length of 6 cm and rounded ends are allowed in the cabin . Razor blades must have a plastic frame to be transported in hand luggage.
If packed in carry-on, they must be less than 4 inches from the pivot point. Any sharp objects in checked bags should be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers and inspectors.
To sum it up, yes, you can bring scissors on a plane! As long as your scissors have blades that are four inches or less, you're good to go. However, if you have larger scissors, make sure to pack them in your checked luggage.
TSA allows scissors up to 4in in your carry-on luggage, but EU safety standards limit blade length to 6cm (2.3in) for carry-on bags. You'll be able to use scissors up to 4 inches long on your flight out, but you'll have to put them in your checked bag on the return trip.
Sharp objectsYou can bring tweezers into the cabin, and scissors with rounded ends and blades less than 6cm long. Razor blades are only allowed in the cabin if they're set in plastic. Knives with a blade not exceeding 6cm can be taken on board. Other sharp objects are not allowed in the cabin.
Most airport security officers, including TSA, and airlines indicate that you can bring sharp objects with blades up to 4 inch (~10 cm) in the carry on luggage. This means that you should be able to bring small embroidery scissors with you.
Toothpaste is considered a liquid by the TSA (Transport Security Agency), even though it's technically a paste. In fact, all pastes, gels, waxes, and lotions are also classified as liquids.

The answer is yes. Toothpaste is permitted on aircraft but only in quantities of 3.4 oz (100ml) or less. The same goes for lotion, shampoo, shaving cream, etc. If you are only travelling with carry-on baggage, keep in mind all these rules when bringing your liquids through security checkpoints.
Checked Bags: YesIf packed in carry-on, they must be less than 4 inches from the pivot point. Any sharp objects in checked bags should be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers and inspectors.

Because the TSA considers the nut spread a liquid, plane passengers must limit the amount they bring in their carry-ons. Like all other liquids, passengers are limited to 3.4 oz or less of peanut butter in their carry-on bag, but can also put the snack in their checked baggage.
