Does anyone have kids that cuts up there toys?

My son doesn't cut them up but he likes to take electronics apart and see whats inside and how they work :)

My daughter likes to cut up her stuffed animals, and it really scares me. Sometimes she will get knives without us knowing so i had to hide all knives

My daughters are both on the spectrum (grown now), & neither of them did anything like that.  My oldest used to "lose" toys all the time just by spacing out & leaving them places.  I was more the destructive one as a child.  I took stuff apart (to see what was inside or how it worked), & beheaded dolls, especially Barbies.  I hated all dolls. LOL  If it was a stuffed animal, I took care of it like it was a living creature.  Have you tried asking why she does those things?  There could be a reason why she does those things.  Scary about the knives!  I'd definitely hide them too along with anything else sharp..scissors, etc.
