8211.93.00.31 - Folding two-handled multi-use tools in which one or more tools are housed in each handle and one or more of the tools is a folding knife blade 🖩

This HTS classification pertains to folding multi-use tools designed with two handles. A key characteristic of these items is that each handle houses one or more individual tools. Crucially, at least one of these housed tools must be a folding knife blade. These multi-tools are distinguished by their combination of folding knife functionality alongside other integrated tools within their foldable handle structure.

Within the broader category of "Knives having other than fixed blades," this specific classification (8211.93.00.31) is distinct from sibling codes like 8211.93.00.35, which covers pen knives, pocket knives, and other knives that *primarily* feature a folding blade without the specific multi-tool assembly described here, and 8211.93.00.60 which encompasses other folding knives or their parts not fitting the specific multi-tool criteria. The defining factor for 8211.93.00.31 is the presence of at least one folding knife blade housed within a multi-handled structure, where each handle contains one or more tools.

As a leaf node, this category represents a specific type of folding multi-tool. It is important to ensure that the item possesses a folding knife blade as one of its integrated components and that these components are housed within two distinct handles, fulfilling the multi-use tool requirement beyond a simple folding knife. The presence of additional tools within the handles, in addition to the folding knife blade, is essential for classification under this code.
