For the uninitiated it's literally made of paper.

The article says

The plastic knife toy, which is shaped like a carrot, is made of fluorescent materials and available in different colours.

Is there more to it than that?

Enough paper cuts and a human can bleed out. They have a right to be concerned. Should go back to hitting each other with sticks and rocks they find outside like I used to do as a kid.

I fondly remember chanting “Sticks and stones may break my bones but paper will slit your fucking jugular.”
