Can my husband carry a gillette M3 shaving blade in his carry on luggage?



Can my husband carry a gillette M3 shaving blade in his carry on luggage while travelling by domestic flght (Continental Airlines) in The USA? Will it be a problem at the security check?
Thanks guys. . . but the thing is he does not want to check in any luggage,coz it is a hassle to collect it later on. . . and hence he wants to have just one carry on bag. . .

    i think so if not he can put it in his other lugage there’s no big deal.

  2. No. I very much doubt that he would be allowed to take a razor blade on an airplane. Tell him to check it, why would he need it in his carry-on, anyway?

  3. Not as a carry on. Pack it.

    Why on earth would you pack any kind of shaving supplies in a carry-on? It’s not like you’ll need it during the flight. And if your checked baggage is lost, razers are easily replaced. Pack it in your checked luggage.

  5. www. tsa. gov. They are the people that make the rules and they have an incredibly long list of the things you can and cannot carry on the plane.

  6. I travel in the US regularly and rarely check a bag. Why pay $25 for a checked bag and risk it getting lost if you don’t have to?

    I’ve NEVER had my standard razor or pack of refills questioned let alone confiscated. I think even the TSA knows that it’d be pretty hard (and comical) to threaten someone with a modern standard shaving razor.

    Now if you are talking about an older style razor that has fully removable flat steel blades – I wouldn’t try that. Also remember to have travel size (3 oz or less per container) liquids (shaving cream, shampoo toothpaste, etc).

  7. disposable razors and their cartridges are permitted.
