Rusty Staines left a comment for Nicolas Roux"Was wondering what's best way to get small collection of gents folders and fixed blades back into UK? I am coming back in December (from NZ) but sorting shipping of rest of my stuff this week. Should I just stash them, boxed, in my shipping and…"
Nicolas Roux replied to Rusty Staines's discussion Best way to ship collection into UK? in the group UK Collectors"Hello mate,

- LOL Kyley is somehow right but I mostly import fixed blade and there is no worries what so ever with those. With regards to folders slipjoints are absolutely fine. Gravity knives, flick knives and autos and an absolute no no. They are illegal to sell nuy, carry AND own. All the others are fine in theory. I would not recommenc the latest via mail as there is a particular customs office that deals with those and let's just say that their interpretation of the law is sometimes rather inconsistent. Travel with those or box them properly with the rest of your cargo.
I hope this helps.
Cheers
