But there is such a wide range of options! As a kid, I used to like my sandwiches in a K-cut. My way of doing this was to cut the sandwich down the middle, from top to bottom, which served as the vertical line in a K. The right half got two cuts, one for each of the other lines in a K. But the left half needed a cut too, so that half got cut diagonally from its upper right corner to its lower left (NEVER the other way). My favorite of the five sandwich pieces that result from this cutting scheme was always the right-most one in the left half, because that piece had the most non-crust pointiness. Pointy interior sandwich wedges taste the best, I think. I always ate that piece last.
