Should NOT be a problem I've done it time and again
Just put them in your baggage BUT NOT in Carry on
As far as insurance ?? I don't bother I only bring a minimum and (sometime
wish they were stolen or lost )
Two years ago I had Harold Enlow over for a week of seminars
ALL the students came in with an impressive tools arrangement. Carts on
wheels to several big carryon tool boxes
When Harold came from our Kitchen carrying a 6 x 6 Ziploc bag with 3 chisels
and 2 knives
Most of them felt very foolish and we all had a good laugh about it them
bringing every thing but the toilet
