You should try to take a chef's knife case across an international border as checked luggage. Sheesh.

My knife case has about $600 worth of very sharp, very good knives in it. Including a couple of custom Japanese blades. They range from a 12" carver to a 2" paring knife.

I always got pulled out of line by Customs in every country, including the USA to waste an hour or 2.

I don't travel anymore.

Why would you get pulled out of line at Customs?

first time i got arrested was coming home from work (chef) and had my knives in my front seat, rather than the trunk.
i considered them “tools” not “weapons.” arresting officer disagreed.
