Default What can't be brought on U.S. planes?

Is there a website that explains what types of things cannot
be brought on an airplane because they will be confiscated?

Examples might be T-razors, nail-cutters, etc.

try looking at the airport, different airport security have different
policies.
Its not the airline thats going to search you, so they dont really care what
you carry.

Some airlines do have their own policies on what
you can and cannot carry. It is best to check the
website for the airline on which you wish to fly.

you mean like emirates......... everyone know in the UK inbound/outbound you
cant carry metal knifes and forks of any kind.

so explain to me why?

MAN - DXB inflight food is served with plastic forks and knifes
DXB - BKK - HKG inflight food is served with metal knifes and forks as well
as bottled red/white wine

HKG - BKK - DXB same as above, i can swipe the cutlery from the flight, go
through dubai security carry them onto my next flight no problems
DXB - MAN inflight food served with plastic forks and knifes (keeping in
mind i have a metal set from previous flight in hand luggage)

what does this achieve?
