Issue date: February 04, 2021
The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney. Applicant must respond timely and completely to the issue below. 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
SEARCH OF USPTO DATABASE OF MARKS
REPRESENTATIVE SPECIMENS REQUIRED
Applicant has applied for a wide variety of goods in International Class 8, and the specimen of record does not adequately represent this variety of goods. Note that if an identification is so broad that it encompasses a wide range of products, the applicant must submit evidence that it actually uses the mark on a wide range of products and services to obtain registration. See In re Air Products & Chemicals, Inc., 192 USPQ 84, recon. denied 192 USPQ 157 (TTAB 1976); 37 CFR 2.61(b); TMEP §§904.01(a) and 1402.03.
Therefore, to permit proper examination of the application, applicant must submit a specimen for each of the following groups of goods. See 37 C.F.R. §2.61(b); TMEP §814.
(1) Planes; Hand tools, namely, screwdrivers
(2) Tweezers; Hair-removing tweezers
(3) Beard clippers; Electric shavers; Shaving blades
(4) Harpoons for commercial fishing;
(5) Palette knives; Spatulas for use by artists;
(6) Pruning knives;
(7) Table knives, forks and spoons for babies
The specimens need not be supported by a declaration but applicant may submit a declaration.
If applicant cannot submit proper specimens for the goods subject to this requirement, applicant may amend the filing basis to intent to use under Section 1(b), for which no specimen is required. This option will later necessitate additional fees and filing requirements such as providing a specimen.

The application will then proceed with the following goods in International Class 8 only: “Folding knives; Fruit knives; Hand tools, namely, knife sharpeners; Knife sharpeners; Paring knives.” See 37 C.F.R. §2.65(a)-(a)(1); TMEP §718.02(a).
