We need a dedicated travel kit thread.

just need to find a container for AS that'll fit.

ALTOIDS

Some excellent ideas there!!! Thanks!

I wrapped my travel tech, a 5 pack of blades, some Proraso in a The Body Shop sample container, and a T&H shave cream sample, in a GFT sample bag. I put my brush in an open plastic baggie after drying for travel between destinations. I like the pill container for the brush!

As it was my first trip with DE stuff, I also threw my Atra handle and some cartridges in my dopp bag. I also have a soap tin that i could throw some gear in - like that idea. I might wrap it in the GFT bag first, though.

These kits are quite common over here i have about another four. They really are good for travelling which i do a lot of and add a bit of style.

TracII travel razor from Em's Place. It did the trick.

Looking at the Dopp kit. Just under $50. Vermont Country Store has them online. Anybody got one??

i saw one in Target a few weeks ago that i really liked, made my Wenger i think it was.

I melt shaving soap and pour it into a round pipe tobacco tin. They have air-tight seals so no leaking in luggage and are a perfect size for making lather.

i just discovered that a Body Shop sample container fits perfectly in the pill bottle under the brush(Sheas Moisture from Target). if your blades are individually wrapped, you could put a few in there as well and just carry the razor separately. you'd have to face/palm lather of course, but it would reduce the bulk considerably.

Here is the one I got on the bay, trying to make it work with my favorite software and razor. Not sure on the brush yet either.

a couple of Lady Schrick Slim Twins, tube of Burt's shave cream and a tube of Burt's aftershave.

Do you guys bring blades onboard with carry-on? If so, any problems with security screen? Or are they in checked bags?

They MUST be checked. NO blades allowed on board the plane.

I travel a bunch and have strated bringing my regular stuff on the road. The tube protects my brush and if I go through TSA I bring a ziplock for the wet stuff and have had no problems.
I only take one bowl.

Smooth shaves,

Thought so........

I'd rather have my fingernails slowly pulled out than check baggage - and wait for them to come in Baggage Claim - especially on a trip of just a few days. Cartridges for me.

I've taken DE blades throuh TSA for years and have only lost them once. I actualy spent a min talking the agent about wet shaving and he got excited to check it out. He thought it'd be cheeper.

Smooth shaves,
Matt
