How to Pack Knives for International Freight Without Exposing Handlers
Quick answer: Protect handlers and prevent blade movement with a supplier-approved packing design, then verify carrier and destination requirements.

Start with the shipment facts
Use secured sheaths or blade guards where appropriate, immobilize products inside inner packs and place sharp edges away from carton walls. Label packages according to carrier instructions and keep SKU counts visible.
Compare an accepted route, not a headline rate
Ask the carrier whether blade type, mechanism or package marking triggers any additional limits. Ensure the commercial invoice describes the goods accurately.
