Today I finally got a notice from customs, I could collect my package there.
This is the paperwork I did at home:
Had to fill in another form at customs, and then they checked if there were any drugs in the package, or if the knife was illegal, and what on earth a fire kit was, and in what category does that fit. Both officers hadn't seen such a fire kit, nor a fire steel.
They didn't find a knife category for the Izula either, they finally decided it was a "hunting knife".
They never told me what category they chose for the fire kit. Then I paid German VAT on it (about 10 EUR). And I finally could leave customs.
Now I am the proud owner of that:
MrCoffee also gave me some patches and I was so totally not expecting those and I am very happy to have those (by the way, they even helped my husband - which came as a bit of a surprise to me ... but that is another story).
MrCoffee, I am so happy, this is such a great give away, the pink Izula is so sweet, and the fire kit is really cool, the rod in it is thicker than I imagined.
And it is great to have yet another reminder on survival strategies with that kit. Thanks a lot, MrCoffee.
