all this spear talk reminds me of a trip i took almost 25 years ago (obviously pre-sept 11). we had been in africa for a bit and one of the guys picked up 2 african throwing spears. one of the first things we asked him was "how are you going to take them on the plane"?
his solution... wrap the spear tips in a couple of layers of paper towel and a little bit of packing tape.
we get to the airport and are going thru 'security' for our carry on stuff. he puts the spears on the conveyor belt that gets x-rayed and gets thru no problem at all.
ha! ha!
good times!
