MASTER CHEFSerial 85036567 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Clad Holdings Corp.
Class 021 -
Filed May 12, 2010
The record shows that the mark “MASTER CHEF” is dead and was abandoned by Clad Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation, after the applicant failed to file a Statement of Use or Extension Request following the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for cooking tools, specifically mixing spoons, slotted spoons, forks, tongs, spatulas, basting brushes, pasta spoons, and turners. A similar name used on those or closely related cooking utensils would raise the closest record‑based concern. The abandonment means the mark no longer controls those goods, but it does not remove any prior rights that might still exist in other classes or for other uses. The last status event was the abandonment notice on August 10, 2015, and no enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that the abandoned mark still signals a prior claim on cooking tools, so caution is advised when using the name in that category.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
