I bought spyderco triangle , and my package got detained by customs.
its a knfie sharperner and im 15 years old.
if i go there do they ask ic or something ..or can I ask my brother to pick it up?
do I have to pay tax?

They might and knife sharpener is not an "allowed" item to bring in. I don't think your brother are allowed to pick up the item on your behalf.

I may not be right. Let's see some experienced user's comments on this.

why is not allowed? only sharperner .
see the picture I got from google , not so dangerous looking also get held?
I order balisong it got passed custom why , knife sharperner get held.
What do I do after I meet them are they fierce looking like teacher or something , what are they asking.
