I’ll say it up front so everyone knows.

I’m a Traditional, Double Edge, Safety Razor, Wet Shaver. I love having a traditional wet shave with a safety razor each and every morning. I still hold to my opinion that a safety razor gives you the BEST shave.

However, air travel in today’s age has changed. Carry-on bags, safety razors, and safety razor blades don’t always mix well. You can pack a safety razor in your carry-on bag, but you are not permitted to pack the double edge razor blades.

I’ve talked about solutions for this. You can mail the blades to your destination or, when you arrive at your destination, pop into a Dollar General store and pick up a pack of five DE blades for only a dollar.

After posting that previous video, further internet groundwork turned up this fact: “The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.”

https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring

This means the TSA agent can, and possibly will, confiscate any item they feel could pose a threat on an airline flight.

I’ve read some posts where folks either had their razors nearly confiscated or were delayed. (I’ve even read a post or two where it was stated the razor was confiscated. In going back, I’ve been unable to locate those original posts or I originally misunderstood the post the first time around). Suffice to say, confiscation of your safety razor is still a possibility. Confiscation of DE razor blades in carry-on luggage is an absolute. Razor blades will be confiscated from carry-on luggage.

A safety razor sometimes gets flagged. Perhaps TSA, when they spot it, decide to further inspect carry-on luggage to make sure no blades have been packed. One can only guess.

So the best solution for carry-on luggage is to simply take a cartridge razor. (Cartridge razors are allowed because the blades are fixed in place. Whereas, a safety razor’s blade can be removed).

I’m beginning to agree with many other wet shavers (who do quite a bit of air travel). If you’re going to fly, leave the DE safety razor at home and take a cartridge razor instead.

This is why I’m reviewing the Dorco Pace 7 Cartridge Razor.

If traveling by air, the Dorco Pace 7 is a good choice. It may not be the same kind of shave as a DE safety razor, but it’s darn close and has the same great blades as all Dorco products.

Given the restrictions of carry-on luggage in air travel, you’ll still be able to pack the Dorco 7 with no problems.

When you arrive at your destination, the Dorco Pace 7 will give you a very good, close, smooth, nick-free shave.

And you won’t have to deal with any potential TSA delays or inconveniences involving a DE safety razor.

If you’re flying away for the weekend and want to take along a safety razor, the TSA has some regulations that require your attention.

https://www.tsa.gov/blog/2010/08/17/safety-razors-and-disposable-razors

The bottom line, you can pack a safety razor in your carry-on bag, you just cannot take the blades.

I’ve checked TSA’s own pages and they state, “…safety razors are not permitted in your carry-on luggage with the blade. The blades must be stored in your checked luggage.”

And

“Safety Razor With Blades (allowed without blade)”
https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/whatcanibring/items/safety-razor-blades-allowed-without-blade

However, as the TSA writes on their web site, “The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.”

So, if you do take a safety razor, make sure it’s one you can afford to lose.

Introducing The Admiral Razor and Brush Stand from Vikings Blade! This a wonderful Stainless Steel and Brass stand. It has nice heft and a minimalist design. It looks great and most razors and brushes easily fit because the holder openings are a bit larger than most. Even my Merkur Futur razor fits beautifully! Very stable and secure!

This one rugged and good looking razor and brush stand that will probably be handed down to the next generation of wet shavers in your family!

The PAL Adjustable Injector Razor gave me a nice close shave. But, it’s a razor that I’ll set aside for the time being. I’ll come back to it later, sometime down the road.
