Never bring a knife to China because DHL and customs make shipping impossible
🇨🇳 DHL China delivery guy came by to ship the Japanese kitchen knife to Europe and rejected it as he said it would get confiscated by Chinese customs even going outside of China
We had help from the Chinese hotel staff and it was impossible
So last thing we'll try is flying with it as check-in luggage
Which went fine flying Beijing to Chengdu btw eventhough it seems also banned the airline woman let us through
I feel they've made this way way way too difficult, you gotta leave shipping as the alternative and they don't
Maybe cause they use 🥢 chopsticks mostly? inb4 racis
Anyway NEVER EVER bring a knife to China FYI!!!!
