Arms act

is khukhri, camping knife or a dagger is allowed while traveling in flight


Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for carrying knives, khukris, and daggers on flights. While these items are classified as weapons and are prohibited in hand luggage, they can be transported in checked-in baggage without prior declaration. For definitive guidance, it's recommended to obtain certified copies of regulations from the Aviation Ministry or airlines.

1. IS classified as a weapon and CANNOT carry it on person /hand baggage, while traveling in flight.

2. However the same can be carried in checked-in luggage, while traveling in flight, without any declaration.
