last weekend, I was in Rotterdam for a company conference. It was a gathering of my colleagues from our worldwide offices. So naturally, i had ordered a C2, an FL6, a Benchmade Gravitator knife, some leatherman tools, via my colleague in the US. Little did I know, he was also bringing in a guitar for my other colleague in the Holland office. So, what had happened was, at the customs at Schipol airport, he was detained for 3(!) hours, just because had all those gear with him and the customs/airport security were VERY curious why he's bringing all these strange looking lights/tactical flashlights...
I really felt sorry for the guy and felt bad abut him being detained. I bought him a drink after the conference though...but man..to be detained for 3 hrs over some flashlights ( well..maybe the strange looking Gravitator nife didnt help the case either!)
On the other hand, on my way back to Malaysia, i brought my C2 and FL6 as hand carry, no problems whatsoever at the scanning machines....
