If you're talking about tsa: https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/multi-tools

In general, you are prohibited from traveling with sharp objects in your carry-on bags. Multi-tools (multipurpose tools) with knives of any length are prohibited. Please pack these items in your checked bags. Multi-tools (multipurpose tools) with scissors less than 4 inches may be placed in carry-on bags.

but don't forget (☞゚ヮ゚)☞

The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.

Yup, the last line holds true. Had a mini multi tool taken because I forgot about it in my bag - it definitely has less than a 4 inch blade.

It's the scissors that can be less than four inches; it says no knives of any length.

Yup yup, I definitely didn't read the full details before writing my comment.
