Checked-in Luggage

[Oswegowind 17]

I need to know if you can bring a "New" in the original packaging, sealed, Gerber tool on an international flight in the "checked in" luggage. My Brother in law in the Philippines has requested 2 of the tools, ironic thing is he is an airplane mechanic for Northwest Airlines, but forgot to get them when he was here last month for training in Atlanta. Of course, he isn't sure if his mother will be allowed to bring them...he could have put his in the mechanics hold.

If they are checked, you should be fine. You could pack a gun (if licensed, and of course, properly packaged), as long as the ammunition was in a separate compartment.

This should be what you need.
