Rare PTC DAWG Posted May 8 #2 Share Posted May 8 (edited) You be the judge, me, I leave mine at home or in the car.

Thank you for the detailed rule…he may also decide to leave it in the car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelling2Some Posted May 8 #4 Share Posted May 8 Someone posted recently that security took a small manicure scissors (part of a set) away from them at boarding. It was kind of funny since he pointed out that steak knives are readily available onboard. It is useful to have a knife or scissors in the cabin. We bring a small blunt tipped scissors and have never had that confiscated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doghog Posted May 8 #5 Share Posted May 8 (edited) I always pack in our first aid kit that's in our checked luggage a corkscrew that has an 1.25 inch knife style foil cutter on it. Also mustache scissors. No problems. https://www.celebritycruises.com/faqs/before-you-board Edited May 8 by doghog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenton04 Posted May 8 #7 Share Posted May 8 Just think or the penitentiary, and jails were all the prisoners are completely disarmed. Yet knives are fashioned out common items issued and used in malevolent intent. I trust fellow passengers with are arguably toy knives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie51 Posted May 8 #8 Share Posted May 8 Not sure about knives, but I have taken a pair of child scissors, I call them “kindergarten scissors” on several cruises and I’ve never had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patty1955 Posted May 8 #10 Share Posted May 8 We carry a number of odd things in a metal lunch box. One of them is a Swiss Army Knife. We've taken it on several cruises without issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelownadon Posted May 8 #11 Share Posted May 8 I’ve taken a similar pocket knife on board in my checked bag a few times in the past with no issues. Now I leave it at home. I would not take it on board in a carryon bag as that is just looking for what could be some serious trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought one a few years ago, a Swiss Army knife, small thing (Eclipse). No problem boarding. However, while returning from our first stop/excursion it was confiscated and returned while disembarking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare WrittenOnYourHeart Posted May 9 #13 Share Posted May 9 Personally I'm glad they're strict about it. All it takes is one drunken temper for things to turn bad quickly with knives. What do you need one for on the ship anyway? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let them know about the knives that Celebrity provides to all at each meal. 😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a butter knife. Never underestimate what some is capable of doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankD63 Posted May 9 #24 Share Posted May 9 Seems silly to confiscate a pocket knife when they’re handing out steak knives in the dining room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patty1955 Posted May 9 #25 Share Posted May 9 As I said we have a lunch box that we take when we travel. It has a manicure set, thermometer for our room, a back scratcher, a corkscrew, a bottler stopper, a swiss army knife, eating utensils, etc. Just any small thing we want for travel. We use the army knife when we buy cheese, salami, etc. to eat in our room. It's always in our checked luggage. It honestly never occurred to me that it wouldn't be allowed on the ship. It makes some sense but I never thought about it. That being said, I'm still taking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
