I think the bottom line with all of this discussion is that you cannot legislate safety for everything and every situation. All of the comments here are appropriate, such as not pushing your body parts into moving blades (duh) requiring a "blade stop", don't stand behind the work you are ripping (riving knife) and just use common sense. Even with all of the safety gizmos people doing stupid unsafe things will get hurt. Congress is so hard pressed to justify their huge salaries and perquisites they feel like they have to sign law after law after law.....ad nauseum. I wish we could send all of them back to the farm for some real work. I could put them to work sanding epoxy.....

Do you mean "riving knife" or "splitter"?

Here's a video that explains it
