Import Tips
• Verify blade is fixed and under 25.4 cm to confirm classification; provide detailed specs and photos
• Include food-safe material certifications like NSF for stainless steel to meet FDA import requirements
• Label as 'kitchen knife' clearly to avoid scrutiny as potential weapons; declare value per piece accurately
