you’ve gotta tell these kids EVERYTHING!

You got that right. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd ever have to say, "Ok, new rule! No Peeing on the Cat!"

Then I had children.

Did they outlaw grinding wheels too?
Because if not, it is only about 5 minutes work to make that knife a deadly one.

Where’s the anti-fork forks?
How can society be safe if people are still allowed to run around and fork someone?

Our company noticed a number of accidents while using knives to open packages so they banned the regular knife and the box cutter knife.

They then issued a squeeze handle knife. When you squeeze the handle about 3/8 of an inch blade comes out to cut what you need cut. Upon release of the handle the blade automaticly retracts to safety.

They were such a joke we took them and put them in our lockers, then used our pocket knives and box cutters again.

A few minutes with a file, grindstone, or cement sidewalk and they will stab!

A very small sample of what is fabricated in prisons everyday. Illegal weapons by convicted felons in a controlled environment. Busy-bodies as usual fail to get the message.

Maybe this absolutely stab-less safety cleaver will now be socially acceptable to carry to football matches, since newspapers are already prohibited.

#2 son is a big, strong kid, but his fine motor skills leave something to be desired. Every time he’s asked to cut up something for a meal, he ends up needing first aid. It’s become a ritual.

Can’t hold them accountable to a rule unless they’re aware of that rule.... :)

Or they could just buy that knife and put in on a bench grinder and put a proper point back in it.

I found a set of them and made good money selling them on e-bay

So he’s not accident prone. He’s just following tradition.
