Yeah, I always wondered about that myself. Perhaps Shakespeare meant a savage who dispenses with cutlery and instead simply rips raw meat chunks from a carcass. A buddy of mine used to live on a Caribbean island. He told me about the local butcher simply slamming down a dull cleaver on a side of beef to cut off portions for customers. The cleaver shattered bones and left lots of tooth breaking chips sprinkled in the meat. -- Don Kuenz
