    "definition": "The action of dividing or shaping material by a sharp edge or tool, spanning many senses the registry aliases name such as haircutting, culinary knife cuts, mincing and filleting, and metal cutting; cutting is fundamental to cooking, manufacturing, surgery, crafts and grooming, using knives, blades, saws, lasers, water jets and shears. Cutting tools are a major cause of injury, so knife safety, guards and protective equipment matter, and self-harm by cutting is a distinct and serious topic for which support is available.
