8201.40.60.10 - Axes and adzes, and parts thereof 🖩

This classification specifically covers axes and adzes designed for cutting, splitting, or shaping wood and other materials. It includes tools like felling axes, splitting axes, carving axes, and various types of adzes used in woodworking and general utility tasks. Parts of these axes and adzes are also classified here, such as replacement heads, handles, or securing components made of base metal.

While the parent category 8201.40 broadly encompasses "axes, bill hooks and similar hewing tools," this specific subheading, 8201.40.60.10, focuses solely on axes and adzes, excluding other hewing tools like bill hooks which would fall under a different sibling category. The "Other" designation at this level distinguishes these specific tools from any other types of hewing tools not explicitly itemized.

As a leaf node within the HTS, this subheading does not have further subcategories. Classification into 8201.40.60.10 is final for goods meeting the description of axes and adzes. Therefore, the primary classification criteria will rely on the tool's design, intended use for hewing or shaping, and its construction primarily from base metal or with significant base metal components.
