Not a problem officially in US, but I'm not sure about Singapore. Singapore is famous for having unreasonable regulations. You should not discount the possibility that such an item will be stolen from your luggage by an airline employee or TSA employee, etc. I have never had one stolen from my luggage, but there are plenty of people who have. You can ship something like that separately through UPS or whatever, or you can try to hide it within your checked luggage to reduce the chance of theft. Just be sure not to carry it on. That will be the surest way to have a problem.

Heh, unreasonable? Yeah, sometimes....
Luckly you should have no problems with the leatherman on this side. I've made two trips this year with a SOG in my check-in, and no problems at all.
Also, my suitcase is always locked. I think I've heard that over in the States you're not supposed to lock your check-in to facilitate inspections? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif But over here I haven't heard of anyone having a problem with that. Of course that would only account for one end of the trip.
Standard stuff applies of course: no sharp pointy stuff, or stuff that goes boom can be carried on. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif Oh, and there's a zero tollerance policy for firearms and drugs here...
