8211.91.20.00 - Valued under 25¢ each, not over 25.9 cm in overall length

This HTS category, 8211.91.20.00, specifically classifies table knives with fixed blades that have stainless steel handles. Crucially, these knives must be valued under 25 cents each and have an overall length not exceeding 25.9 cm. The defining characteristic for inclusion here is the composition of the handle, which must contain nickel or consist of over 10 percent by weight of manganese. This intricate chemical composition of the handle is the primary determinant for classification within this specific sub-item, differentiating it from other stainless steel-handled table knives.

The "Other" sibling category at this level, 8211.91.25.00, would encompass table knives with fixed stainless steel blades and handles that do not meet the specific nickel or manganese content criteria outlined for 8211.91.20.00, or which fall outside the specified value and length parameters. This distinction is vital for accurate tariff application, as it separates knives based on specific material properties and economic valuation.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific item. Therefore, the focus remains on the precise definition and exclusion criteria provided at this level, ensuring that only table knives meeting all stipulated conditions for material composition, value, and length are correctly classified under 8211.91.20.00.
