    Just because most children can’t use a knife safely doesn’t mean that anyone who can’t use a knife safely must therefore be a child.

    That’s called “association fallacy“.

      No, but the person you responded to didn’t specify. They just said what group of people would use these. Those who cant safely operate a knife. That includes children. I’m not saying it’s made up exclusively of children.

      You’re mistakingly assuming that because it was made for a sunset that ist not designed for the larger group. It’s designed for the subset, which forms part of a larger group. It’s still, then, for that group, especially for the subset.
