Well, I read here about new travel rules where security is confiscating DE razors. I imagine it was because they got tired of having to ask travelers to disassemble their razors. So. I mailed blades to my family & friends I'm visiting and packed a Phoenix Artisan Filament in my carry on. It does not really show up on X-Rays, So went through with no problem. Not my favorite razor, but sure beats carts, and also, I no longer own an electric. Happy traveling.
