Are they contraband? - Did they just get confiscated in the inspection? If that might happen I'd have to wonder if the radios would too.

Postal and military regulations allow "pocket tools" with blades under 4 inches, and no serrations. I've successfully sent other knives with the same customs declaration. Of course, there's nothing to prevent some inspector who's having a bad day, or sticky fingers, from stopping the shipment.
