If our teeth are so great for "tearing flesh" then why do meat eaters use knives?!
Answers:
A: Our teeth aren't that great!. They're flat!. Creatures with sharp teeth are great for the tearing of flesh!.
B: It's impolite to knaw on a piece of meat!. I mean, it looks primitive!.
C: also, dentist bills!. Using our teeth in the way you suggest risks chipping a tooth!. Knives are sturdy and much better for it, and cheaper to replace than teeth!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Apparently you've never been on a fishing or hunting trip with a bunch of "just guys"!. I've seen 4 men, including myself reduce a 12 pound turkey to nothing but bone and gristle using nothing but teeth and hands, in a matter of a few minutes!.
Since we are lucky enough to have opposable thumbs and can use tools, knives just make eating easier and faster!. Same reason we use blenders and food processors, which are basically just highly advanced mechanical knives themselves!. Thus we can spend less time eating and more time hunting our next meal!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If humans are meant to be exclusive herbivores, why don't they get on their hands and knees and eat grass and other plants like other true herbivorous animals do!? Why do you eat your salad with a fork!? Do the words "ridiculous idiotic self righteous double standard" mean anything!? Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because it is impolite in Western culture to eat with you hands!.

What I am capable of doing and what I actually do are different things!. I can eat meat without a knfe but why would I!? I can wash my dishes over the sink but I use a dishwasher!.

Proper etiquette dictates that utensils are to be used to feed ourselves!.
On the other hand, at home I have been known to gleefully pick up a juicy, tender steak and viciously tear a mouthful off my steak with no ill effects to my teeth!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
