Are Alpha / Alpha Light / Frontier / Detour knives TSA carry-on compliant?

According to the United States TSA, knives are not allowed in carry-on luggage, "except for plastic or round-bladed butter knives".

We interpret this to mean:

• Not likely to be TSA carry-on compliant

  • Alpha Knife

  • Alpha Light Knife

  • Frontier Knife

  • Detour Tableware Knife

• Absolutely not TSA carry-on compliant

  • Detour Kitchen Knife

  • Detour Paring Knife

Similar restrictions likely apply with airport security in other countries as well. Always check local regulations before you travel, and remember that the final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.
