JAGUAR

What this record means

The record shows that the application for “JAGUAR” filed by Double 8 Trading Co., Inc., a New Jersey corporation, was abandoned on September 28 1998 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, so the mark is not live or registered. The only listed goods are “knives” in International Class 008, with a first use date of October 1994, meaning the closest area of concern would be any other party trying to use the word “JAGUAR” for knives or closely related cutting tools. The record does not give Double 8 Trading any control over the word “JAGUAR” in other product categories, such as clothing, automobiles or electronics. Because the application was on the Principal Register and never moved to the Supplemental Register, there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment entry on September 28 1998, and no enforcement actions appear in the history. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a knife brand with the same name, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods.
