My wife and I are going on a trip in a month that will require the use of an airplane (out of the country). I would much rather take along a straight razor than packing my electric... How do you guys handle taking a straight when flying? I have checked, and I would rather not pay $15 each way to check a bag, especially when my razor is not worth a ton of money. I have thought about trying to find a straight when I get there (but who knows what I might find if anything), or maybe sending myself a package containing a razor to the hotel. What do you all think? I know for sure that I won't be trying to take it as a carry on! I had my bottle opener taken away because it had a useless 1/2" blade on it, and that was a few years ago.
