Import Tips
• Separate sheath from classification; HTS covers machete and parts, but sheaths may need separate entry
• Conduct blade sharpness tests if challenged, as overly keen edges risk weapon reclassification
• Use ISF filings early for machetes due to potential security screening as edged tools
