in your luggage (not carry on of course). My partner is a knife collector and buys a lot of stuff in Indonesia and regularly carries all sorts of blades in his luggage. He has also taken a set of chefs knives from Australia to Indo as a gift for a friend on Gili Air. Never has he declared them and never has he been seriously questioned. Sometimes customs officers like have a look out of personal interest.
