8211.92.90.60 - Other

This HTS category, 8211.92.90.60, encompasses a broad range of knives with fixed blades that do not fall into more specific classifications. It is intended for knives that are not primarily for kitchen or butchering purposes, nor are they designed as sheath-type knives. The distinguishing characteristic is that these knives are not explicitly defined by their functional application (like kitchen knives) or by their intended carrying method (like sheath-type knives).

To clarify the distinction from its sibling categories, 8211.92.90.30 covers knives specifically designed for kitchen and butchering tasks, such as chef's knives, paring knives, and cleavers. Similarly, 8211.92.90.45 is reserved for knives typically manufactured with an accompanying sheath for safe and convenient carrying, often associated with outdoor, hunting, or survival knives. This category, 8211.92.90.60, therefore acts as a residual classification for other fixed-blade knives.

Examples of knives that would fall under this classification include utility knives, craft knives, hobby knives, and other general-purpose fixed-blade knives whose primary function and design do not align with the more specific sibling categories. Classification within this category relies on the absence of specific design features or intended uses that would place the knife into a more narrowly defined HTS code.
