Overview

This HTS classification, 8212.20.00.05, specifically covers single-edge razor blades designed for shaving purposes. These are the individual blades intended for use in razors, characterized by having only one sharpened edge. The classification focuses on the functional aspect of the blade as a shaving implement.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 8212.20.00.10 ("Other"), is crucial. The "Other" category would encompass any safety razor blades that do not meet the specific criteria of being single-edge blades for shaving. This could include, for example, double-edge safety razor blades or blades for applications other than personal shaving, provided they fall within the broader scope of safety razor blades.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for 8212.20.00.05. Therefore, classification at this level relies entirely on accurately identifying the item as a single-edge blade intended for shaving. This ensures that such specific shaving implements are correctly accounted for in trade statistics and customs procedures.
