Besides the risk of damage or theft when flying with a str8, has anyone experienced any delays or interrogations with a str8 in a checked luggage?
Thanks,
Rob

If it's checked, then it should not be a problem. However, I would be worried about it getting stolen.
I have flown with it checked and no problem. It wasn't my favorite razor that I took though, just in case.:cool:
Yeah. Next time I travel, I'll just bring a shabby looking good shaver. The M&Y would be a good candidate once I put a good edge on it. It has rubber scales, some pitting and it doesn't look like much, but chances are it will give decent shaves on the go once I give it a more detailed introduction to the Norton.
You guys recommend anything special in a travel strop?
I was figuring my Shavette for travel, but I think its retired. It was the best I could do for a while, but I don't think I'm ever going back.

The last few times I've flown I've just taken my Dovo. It's a good shaver that would be the easiest to replace if it ever 'disappeared' from my checked bag.

I miss the good old days pre 9/11. Before 9/11 i packed my st8 in the toiletry bag and took it on teh plane with me. That way i had my toiletries for a freshen up in the airport (I used to fly loooong distances) The longest i have ever flown is from Philadelphia to Diego Garcia, 26 hours. Now everything has to be checked :cry:

Speaking of which, can you at least take a DE onto a plane?
You can't even take moustache scissors on. Hell, my mom got her fingernail clippers confiscated last time she flew out to visit me, so I'd seriously doubt you could get a DE through.

You can take the razor...just no blades.Quote:
