Well, its cold here in florida, so we decided to accomplish one of our lifetime goals, get certified. So we signed up yesterday and had our in class today. It was a solid 4 hour course, covering 6 30 page chapters and then a final exam. Tomarrow is the pool and then diving in the bay, and monday is the legit actual dive. So as we were leaving the dive shop tonight, me and my brother saw something that cought our eyes. It was beautiful. It was a case of knives. We both bought one. Mine was $45.00 and his was $40.00. It is such a sick knife. Im so pumped to dive with it, strapped to my ankle.

So do any of you guys dive?
Here's a pic of my new baby.

kool knife
uh oh dont piss him off.....cool!
LOL, the best part about it is the ankle strap. I have a question though, do I just put it in my checked luggage? I know I don't carry this SOB on, I'd get shot, LOL.
The best bet would be to send it to yourself via USPS or UPS
im a cert. diver. i did some diving when i was in st. lucia. it was so clear!! i did a coral dive and a ship wreck dive. the wreck dive was over 100 ft. down. it was the first time since i got my card that i was that far down.
its a good hobby to have if you travel alot. and if you stay at an all inclusive resort, most of the times scuba trips are included.
yeah, i wouldnt even attempt to take that on a plane at all, just go to a ups or a post office and send it home. you would probally have to go thru a back ground check and everything it would be faster to ship it home than spend all the time at the airport.
dude they take lighters away from people now! there is no way you would ever get that on a plane. mail it!
My father always has a knife (Or two) on him and last time we flew to Vegas he forgot he had it on him! The airport security gave him a cardboard box to Put the knife in to check with the luggage and told him that he could have put the knife into his luggage. I'd call the airport and find out to be sure. Tell them you have a scuba knife that you have to transport and want to be sure it would be OK to put into your luggage.
CHECKED luggage should be fine. I do it all the time. If you have the box it came in, maybe leave it in that with the sales receipt, then if asked you can show it's a item purchased on a trip. But I doubt it will be questioned. Might be a good idea to pack both knives in the same bag.
