It does cut, but the average person would probably never use this to cut anything.

Carving is unlikely to be the method used to create what is in the macro but it could be called decorative. Even though it is decorative, it is not strictly for decoration. What you are calling decorative does have a function.

Is the dark area a marking that helps in the use of this item?

No. The function of the mark is simply informational.

Well, informational marks can be useful, such as the ones on rulers and compasses. Is this mark more like part of the manufacturer's name or logo?

The mark is not one of many used to determine a measurement in the same manner as the marks on a ruler or compass are used. This mark is not a logo but is part of the information provided by the manufacturer.

Would the item be used in any scientific work?

Is the mark part of instructions or cautions about how to use the item?

Does the mark consist of or include a place name that would be the reason for being misled?
