Yes but they'll let you carry it in your checked luggage.
I remember flying with my Vivitar flat field 90-180, a dense chunk of
brass and glass that was about a foot and a half long, which would give
quite a bit of mechanical advantage if swung as a club.
Much more dangerous than any pocket knife but the TSA took off the lens
caps looked through it and just let me fly with it.
It's all theater and safety doesn't actually measure into it, and if it
did flying would be so onerous that everyone would rebel.

Swiss Army Knife in my hand luggage & was forced to surrender it at OR

replaced by eating plastics.

If it has less than a 3.5inch blade, it's no problem. I carry a

I prefer a two-piece for self-defence. Collapsed, you have
effectively a weighted walking stick, à la Sherlock Holmes. One

recommend the Benbo Traveller.

That looks enough like the one I use, that I can opine that it also
makes a decent club, for self defense.

It doubles as a nice walking stick.
