Is Swiss knife allowed in international flight?

No, you cannot bring a Swiss Army Knife on a plane. A Swiss Army Knife, pocket knife, firearms, or any weapon must be placed in your checked baggage, and you must follow TSA guidelines for transporting weapons on a plane. As an EDC nut, I hate to travel without a knife.
