But you're not seeing a knife.

Nope, not a cog.

Makes me think of the Jetsons. Spacely Sprockets and Cogswell Cogs.

Neither of which this is...

Inside of a lamp switch? The kind that turns? No... that would be a cog.

Correct - not a lamp switch.

In fact, nothing electrical at all.

While I took the photo in the kitchen, this isn't normally where you'd find this particular item.

And it's too clean to be a can opener...

Not thought of as a tool. But it is extremely common.

Nope, it was in the house already.
