Preferred label	Hand tools and implements (hand-operated); cutlery; side arms; razors
Definition	Class 8 includes mainly hand operated implements that are used as tools. Under these parameters, Class 8 includes many domestic implements that are hand-powered or hand-operated. Such domestic implements are those that perform a function, such as, cutting or piercing, but do so powered by the human hand and not by a manufactured power source. Thus, non-electric egg slicers and non-electric pizza cutters are in Class 8. It should also be noted, however, that certain non-electric items in Class 8 also have their electric counterparts included in this class. For example, nail buffers, electric and non-electric are in Class 8 as are electric and non-electric hair clippers for personal use. It should be noted that the side arms referred to in the Class Heading do not include guns or other firearms. Examples of side arms that are in Class 8 include knives, swords and bayonets.
