Even if I had a nice 91-93mm knife less Vic, I wouldn’t be risking it as a carry on.
2) Re: SAKs centered around other tools like the new package opener: while that may make a cool tool, it won’t solve the problem of irrational people calling a tool a weapon. It still has a sharp edge (as does the scissors, awl, saw, etc). The precedent is being set in real time that a SAK can be viewed as a weapon by people who don’t do nuance. This is why I think Vic would be better served to push back against that framing rather than kowtow to it.
