"the preparation or consumption of food or drink," should reasonably apply to pretty much anybody as well. Just don't forget to bring a fruit, piece of meat or vegetable of some kind with you. "I was just going to peal this orange!" Done! ;D Anyway, the way I see it, this is the kind of law that is expressed in a negative manner: something is considered illegal by default UNLESS you fall into a number of specific cases ("reasonable excuse"). I think the fact they are expressed in this negative way makes the reversal of the burden of proof kinda logical in a way. I'm absolutely no lawyer though, so this is just my "logical" way of seeing it. |

They were designed to slice through meat, and so are clearly perfect for making a nice sandwich. :) |

A katana is also nice to cut a watermelon. |

A swiss army knife is illegal too? |
