8211.94.10.00 - For knives having fixed blades

This classification covers knives specifically designed with fixed blades, meaning the blade is permanently attached to the handle and does not fold or retract. This includes a wide array of knives intended for general cutting purposes, such as utility knives, craft knives, and certain types of kitchen knives where the blade remains in a fixed position. The defining characteristic is the non-movable nature of the cutting edge.

Within the "Other" category for knives, 8211.94.10.00 is distinguished from its sibling, 8211.94.50.00 (Other), by its specific focus on the *blades* of these fixed-blade knives. While the sibling category likely encompasses finished, non-blade components or potentially other unspecified knife types under heading 8211, this code precisely targets the cutting element itself when it is the item being classified.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Classification under 8211.94.10.00 is therefore determined by the item being a blade for a fixed-blade knife, falling under the broader scope of Chapter 82 which deals with tools, implements, and cutlery of base metal. The focus remains on the physical nature of the blade as a component of a fixed-blade knife.
