Yeah but most knives aren't actively plotting your demise.

With cats, it seems more of a chaotic/reactive, but same results.

My second irrational fear is cats are quite literate and can read all this.

Note: if your knife begins plotting the demise of you or any other person, the best course of action is to assume your rightful place as an avatar of destruction.

Congrats! Your knife is now an SCP. Please find a class d personnel and have them interact with your knife. If it kills them, please elevate a mobile task force delta, such as MTF Delta-5 to properly contain your knife
