Import Tips

• Document the adjustable collar and helical blade mechanism to demonstrate it is a mechanical office machine, not a simple hand tool

• Check if the sharpener is made of plastics or base metal, as this may affect the classification under other headings

• Retain records of the product's intended use for artists to support the classification if questioned
