> Should knife manufacturers be held responsible for idiots who stab themselves in the eye using their knives?

I suggest an alternative rhetorical question: if the world's largest knife manufacturer found out that 1 in 1500 knives came out of the factory with the inscription "Stab yourself. No more detours. No more echoes. Just you and me, and the finish line", should they be held responsible if a user actually stabs themselves? If they said "we don't know why the machine does that but changing it to a safer machine would make us less competitive", does that change the answer?
