I was worried about my newly bought Solingen nail scissors, but she ignored this and went for a tiny sewing kit that had a pathetic 1-inch blade with rounded tips. She held it up, smiled at me and asked "Throw away? Not allowed on plane."
Really weird, I've flown with this kit for years without ever having a problem.
