Multiple slashes - It must have been a really tough roast beef.

Yeah, what most in the emergency medial field would call hesitation marks. Imagine the position you would have to be holding the roast in to cut yourself there.

As far as the clip/magazine issue - they are not the same, not even similar, in form or function, and people who confuse the two render themselves less credible, while those who insist they are same/same go farther.
