Here are details from the TSA:
Changes to Prohibited Items List (PIL) - March 2013
It's still substantially more restrictive than one might think if one were only considering blade length (no longer than 2.36").
Blade wider than 1/2"? Not allowed.
Blade locks "firmly"? Not allowed.
Knife has "molded grip"? Not allowed. (Good luck on getting a clear definition of what constitutes a "molded grip".)
To their credit, if it allows one to take along a small Swiss army knife or Leatherman Squirt, well, that's at least
some improvement, IMHO.
