straight razors on vacation
Hi all,
I have started shaving with a straight razor (a sight unseen deal from WhippedDog) far about a month now and my shaves are getting to the point of being acceptable with no more irritation then using cartridges.
Now, I'll be going away on holiday in mid april and I'd like to bring my razor with me. I will be flying with Emirates from the Netherlands to Dubai (I'll stay there one day) to Japan, where I'll be staying for four weeks. I will then continue to Thailand, from where I'll travel through Cambodja to Vietnam in order to fly back to the Netherlands.
I'm not sure how strict airport security is, nor am I familiar with the laws in said countries regarding cutthroat razors, so I would like to know if my razor might be taken from me by security/police personnel, rf whether I could get in trouble having one in my suitcase while traveling.
Does anyone have any experience with transporting a razor in their check-in luggage or with carrying a razor in the countries I'll be visiting?
Any additional tips on razor transportation would also be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
