Import Tips
• Verify the blade is truly fixed and not folding to avoid reclassification under 8211.94; provide engineering specs if challenged
• Include detailed photos and material certifications showing base metal handle composition for accurate HTS verification
• Ensure compliance with U.S. import blade length restrictions and labeling requirements to prevent CBP holds
