Hi all,
I'll be living in the wilderness in China for a few days and just wondering how people manage to take equipment which might be considered dangerous (knives, axes) overseas? Would you buy the equipment on arrival?
Cheers

I would buy it there.....most all is made there anyway.
I sure they have a Walmart....or similar....that will get you enough stuff to camp out for a few days.

Buy it there.
You apparently have not seen the charge rate for check in baggage recently.
Even flying inside the boundaries of the U.S. I carry nothing and make a bee-line for the nearest Cabbalas', Bas Pro or Walmart as soon as my feet touch the ground.
I am certain there would be a huge bazar with everything you need somewhere near your landing area.
If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?
Thanks heaps... Thought it may be the case to have to buy it there.
Cheers guys
In your suitcases you should be able to carry knives, pills, etc. I can't say what is legal. In your carry on you can't carry hardly anything. Should be 35-50 per suitcase and maybe 10-15 discount if you pay for it in advance before you arrive at the airport. Each airline is a little different. Buy the tickets way in advance if you want a better price.
You may well want to check what is legal in China. Make certain you know where the U.S. Embassy is.
I heard that if you go to McDonalds in China they will rescue you.......?

BUY it there, you like pay very cheaply for it too, a lot of the most well known brand have their production in China. rather do that than risk anything, china is pretty strict with what you can take in on a plane.

Will you have a translator? Have him take you to a store. Last time I was in Shenzhen, almost 2 years ago, they had stores.... with lots of stuff in them.... even camping stuff. Felt like I was in Eastern Germany in the middle 90's.
I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

Back in China, Ming agrees to drive Drew to Beijing, but he finds the embassy is closed for Thanksgiving. Drew then tries to make money by putting on a sock puppet show in the Forbidden City, but some police officers take him away to an office where he must apply for a vendor permit. Drew manages to call his friends, but the line goes dead before he can give them any information. After leaving the permit office, Drew meets an elderly woman who offers him a French fry from McDonald's. Drew finds the restaurant, but soon learns that he does not have enough money for food. Drew realises that McDonald's is an international company and believes they can help him return home and asks for the manager's (Ming Lo) help. After Drew sings a McDonald's jingle, the manager takes pity on him and gives him the phone number of their customer service line and offers to buy him some food. Elated, Drew runs up the stairs of the Temple of Heaven, but gets winded before reaching the top and lays down on a stone carving.

Hey!!!
No one told me there was running involved in getting to the Pearly Gates!
That changes the whole deal and will involve a talk with the pastor!
