You don’t have to leave your EDC gear home when you travel if you follow certain TSA rules.

DREAMSTIME.COM EDC gear is not always TSA friendly. In many cases when you fly, you will have to either not take it with you or place it in checked baggage. If your non-permissive gear is inexpensive, that is not cause for concern. However, if you carry a highend knife, multitool, expensive flashlight or tactical pen that makes TSA (Transportation Security Administration) get all jittery when they see it, checking a bag might be your best option.
