Cartridge Item

having a shaving razor as a carry on item for a flight?

is it ok to carry on disposable razors? i was reading the regulations and one of the things not allowed was a "razor without a cartridge". im assuming theyre also just talking about the actual razor blades. and moreover, i consider a shaving razor as a razor with a cartridge.

this may seem trivial, but i do not plan on checking in any baggage cuz my suitecase is so light with minimal items but i do need a razor.

please, no other suggestions such as "buy one when you get there". my question is whether or not its allowed as a carry on and if anyone has ever been told to toss out their razor when they went through checkpoint.

thanks!

Disposable razors are allowed in carry-on luggage, according to the TSA at the link below.
