hi. thanks to all for the information. Unfortunately nobody has flied here to bring the yataghan with till now. Very soon my brother will attempt to bring it by plane in a suitcase. I know he had no time and will to try to obtain the necessary documents, so i will need luck. what do you think? Would the check in and customs personnel in Chicago airport let him or not? What is his chance of doing it? Or if he cannot succeed, does anyone know Chicago airport international terminals, if there is a post office around which he can send back the sword to his home adress from?

And, is this CITES regulatory not valid for postal service? Several ivory hilted arms have come to me from the U.S. or I have sent several similar items into U.S from abroad, without any problem,thats why I wonder.

regards
