8211.92.40.60 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 8211.92.40.60, encompasses "Other" knives with fixed blades, specifically those not covered by prior subheadings within 8211.92.40. These are knives with cutting blades, whether serrated or not, designed for general use and not specifically as pruning knives or those categorized under heading 8208. The defining characteristic for this classification is the presence of a handle made of rubber or plastic, and the knife itself not falling into any more specific category at this level.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 8211.92.40.50, which specifically covers "Sheath-type knives." While both are fixed blade knives with rubber or plastic handles, this category (8211.92.40.60) includes all other fixed blade knives meeting the material criteria that are *not* designed for or accompanied by a sheath for carrying. This implies a broader range of utility knives, craft knives, and general-purpose fixed blade knives where the primary classification is based on the fixed blade and rubber/plastic handle, and the absence of a sheath differentiates it from the more specific sibling.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 8211.92.40.60. Therefore, the classification is definitive for any fixed blade knife with a rubber or plastic handle that does not fit the description of a sheath-type knife or other more specific exclusions within the broader heading 8211. Practical classification relies on confirming the fixed nature of the blade, the material of the handle, and ensuring the knife is not specifically designed to be a sheath knife.
