  2. If travelling, be alert that kubotan and similar weapons are specifically mentioned in the TSA prohibited items list as not allowable for carry-on. It might get through (“Hey, I just like a heavy pen”) but you wouldn’t want to have to toss your $120 pen in the trash if it doesn’t. Put it in your checked luggage before getting to security.
