Outwitting Big Plastic + A Brand New Travel Bundle
A question that often comes up is whether you’re actually allowed to fly with a safety razor. We’ve got the answer.
But first, we’ve got something new for you: Introducing the Razor & Case Bundle. Our popular 100% metal High Noon safety razor paired with an American hardwood travel case in your choice of maple or walnut. Now you can look good no matter where your travels take you.
But here’s the catch—Big Plastic is using their TSA pals to cramp your style. Don’t worry, we’ve got a plan to keep your razor safe and travel compliant.
TSA Tips
Our High Noon Razor is a masterpiece of American craftsmanship—sharp, durable, and built to last a lifetime. But traveling with a safety razor (blades and all) requires a bit of know-how, thanks to the TSA’s changing and sometimes contradictory rules. Here’s how to keep your High Noon Bundle safe from confiscation.
The TSA’s Razor Ruse: A Big Plastic Plot?
Is Big Plastic colluding with the TSA to “disappear” our superior razors? Possibly, but even if not, they’re certainly not going to lift a finger to change the status quo, because every Western Razor that makes it through security is a blow to their landfill-clogging, overpriced cartridge empire. They want you stuck with their chemical-laden, disposable junk—preferably bought at the airport gift shop for an even larger markup. But we’re onto their game, and we’re here to help you outsmart the system.
The TSA’s official rules say that safety razors without blades are okay in your carry-on. However, in our experience, this is a risk. Our co-founder Mike even had two of his razors confiscated—after having many of his razors pass through just fine—despite the rules saying otherwise.
Checked Luggage: Your Razor’s Safe Haven
Don’t give Big Plastic the satisfaction of watching your High Noon get tossed into the airport’s “contraband” bin. If you want to make sure the feds don’t end up enjoying your safety razor, pack it in your checked luggage.
The TSA is crystal clear that safety razors with blades—or any razor-type blades “that are not in a cartridge” (how suspicious)—are a no-go in carry-ons, but they’re perfectly fine in checked bags. Our wooden travel case is designed to keep your razor and blades secure, so they’ll be waiting for you at your destination, ready to deliver that superior Western Razor shave.
How to Travel Like a Shaving Pro
Pack Smart: Pop your High Noon Safety Razor and blades into the wooden travel case and tuck it into your checked luggage. The case is tough enough to handle baggage handlers and anything else that travel throws at it.
Carry-On At Your Own Risk: If you must bring a razor in your carry-on, leave the blades (which you can usually pick up at any pharmacy) at home and cross your fingers. Disassembling the razor might also help, since the TSA agent won’t have to check for blades. But honestly? It’s not worth taking the chance. Travel is hard enough without trying to reason with a government employee at 7am.
Spread the Word: When you’re shaving like a champ at your destination, tell everyone how you outsmarted the system. Post it on X or Instagram, tag Western Razor, and let’s expose Big Plastic’s shady airport antics.
