    i think its illegal to bring them into ireland,not for them to leave spain,
    so stick it the middle of a big bag and wrap it up in towels or something

    is it sharpened or does it have a cert saying its ornimental. if you have paperwork classing it as an ornimant, it should be, ok -maybe declare it and show paperwork- in your luggage, just dont bring it in your carry on, or it will be taken off you. if in doubt, ring customs in airport and find out, or else just post it to yourself

    edit: if it isnt certified as an ornimant or novilty, then it is classed as a weapon and is illeagal to being back AFAIK.
