Can I bring a crowbar on a plane?

No, in carry-on. Crowbars are prohibited in carry-on bags as bludgeoning objects. They are permitted in checked luggage with restrictions.

• Carry-on: prohibited (blunt instrument category) 

• Checked bags: permitted but should be wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers

• Tools over 7 inches must be checked (crowbars exceed this limit) 

• Pack with other tools in a secure container

• The final decision rests with the TSA officer
