Can I use knife puns at work or around kids?

What makes a good knife pun versus a bad one?
A good knife pun uses clever wordplay related to 'knife,' 'blade,' 'edge,' 'sharp,' 'point,' or 'cut' in a way that's both unexpected and relevant. Bad knife puns just force the word in without real wit. The best ones make you want to tell someone immediately—even if they'll groan in response!
