Trademark Class 8- Hand-Operated Tools And Implements For Performing Tasks, Such As Drilling, Shaping, Cutting And Piercing

This guide provides an overview of Trademark Class 8, a specific category within the trademark classification system. In this post, we’ll delve into what falls under Class 8.

Selecting the correct trademark class is crucial because protection is granted only within that chosen category. If a trademark is used across multiple categories, separate applications are required for each class to ensure full protection.

Trademark Class 8 encompasses hand tools and implements, both hand-operated and electric; cutlery; side arms, excluding firearms; and razors. This class specifically includes hand-operated agricultural, gardening, and landscaping tools, as well as tools used by carpenters, artists, and other craftspersons, such as hammers, chisels, and gravers.

Additionally, it covers handles for hand-operated tools like knives and scythes, electric and non-electric hand tools for personal grooming and body art (including razors and implements for hair curling, tattooing, and manicures/pedicures), hand-operated pumps, and table cutlery like knives, forks, and spoons, including those made of precious metals.

Choosing the correct trademark class is pivotal during the application process. Registering under a specific class limits trademark protection to that particular category. But before registering the trademark it is essential to search whether an identical or similar mark is registered.
