Hi,
I have a question for the forum regarding carry on items that are not normally allowed. This past summer we were traveling by RENFE from Girona to Barcelona. A friend of ours had her deceased father's Swiss Army Knife in her purse. When she put her purse through the RENFE x-ray machine, they found and confiscated her knife. Of course, she was upset that she lost the knife for sentimental reasons.
My question is related to the fact that I intend to carry a Swiss Army Knife on the Camino. I will have a small bag which I can use to check the knife and any other items that cannot be carried on (really can't think of any, at the moment) when traveling by air. However, I most likely be required to travel by train in Spain or France, even for a short distance. What have others to address this situation? Thanks in advance.
