Help! Can I take my rotary cutter in my carry-on on the plane? I mailed it to myself when I came to my vacation home, and it took forever (even by priority mail). I really want to just bring it with me when I come home today!

Put it in checked baggage, not carry on.

My mind did a loopity-loop.... well they can fly across the room when I just cut my strip wrong again.... sorry
But I would agree.... check it! not carry on.

When I was doing cross stitch I bought a special pair of toddler scissors for cutting thread.... they never made it onto the plane!! My daughter gave me a "necklace" that has a nitch in it that cuts thread. No good for you. But, why on earth would you want a rotary cutter on a plane for, anyway? Oh, if you don't plan to check in luggage! Oh yeah, I do that too.
Mine did too. I was trying to imagine what direction it would fly out? guess it's getting too late, even for a Friday night. lol

Definitely NOT. If you want to keep it, pack it in a checked bag - otherwise consider it a donation to TSA. Speaking of which ... TSA might not know what it is and the mere fact that it is in your posession might be an invitation to a more thorough search ... if you get my drift.
May your stitches always be straight, your seams always lie flat, and your grain never be biased against you.

Why not leave that one there and get one that stays home? Use a 50% off coupon.

I just flew Air West and to check any luggage, you had to pay $25 for the first piece. Maybe that's why she wanted to know if she could carry it on. Can't even check in luggage for free anymore with them. Might be cheaper to buy a small cutter at your destination if you have to pay to store your luggage.
