The thing here is that the riddle never specified what shape the cheese was in.
So, Axx's first answer was also my first answer. In that case, we were right and wrong at the same time. "Right" in the sense that ignoring the definition of "cut", and in the sense that you were of cheese in a cylindrical shape such as brie or camembert. If you took the birthday cake hint too far, you would end up in this conclusion.
However, if you were thinking of a slice of cheese, you would fold the cheese accordion style and cut it like that. In sense, this is similar to "moving the cheese into position as you do one slow, cutting motion". Except you're doing this prior to starting the cutting motion. Though, string cheese method works very much as well, and is also valid!
Another pointlessly fun riddle. You have six coins and three cups. With those coins, in one cup, put one coin. Another cup, put two coins in. In the final cup, put 3 coins. Show us how that is possible.
Easy right? Now do it with only 5 coins available. Then only 4 available. Then only 3 available.
Stack the cups.
IE: For, let's say, the 4 coin scenario.
Cup 1 : Put in 1 coin
Cup 2 : Put in 2 coins.
Cup 3 : Put in 1 coin, then stack it with Cup 2, with the 2 coins inside of it. For 3 coins total.

Who says you cant move the coins
It only said put a coin in the cup,donest say what you can do with the coin after you put it in
Ie with with 3 coins
Put 1 coin the first cup then 2 coins in the second
Then just dump the 3 total coins into the 3rd
I have put 3 coins in one cup, 2 coins in 1 cup, 1 coin in 1 cup

Correct. It was never stated what you should do with the coins after being placed in a cup! Or what you can do with the cups themselves!
People answered the main methods to do so. In a less amount of posts, which depresses me. I've ran out of available 'riddles', and thus, this thread should come to an end! Unless you all want to make this the designated riddle thread. Or something.

Very Bottom of the body of water
Magician. The body of water can be anything. In this case, I assume a pool?

He can just be underneath some source of water, like a cup or a bowl. But whether or not he's lying can't be ascertained by the information provided, because, while it's possible, he still might not be, and still might be lying.

Assuming you're a good warrior, the sword is already in your hand.

You're right, but common sense would say the case with the weapons, what with the Vampire probably isn't stupid enough to make soup out of you while you're conscious with a weapon. D:

What, you think fists can actually hurt a real vampire that isn't from Twilight? At least with the weapon case, you can break off a piece of it, since considering architecture of the vampire's style will most likely be made of wood, you can now use a wooden stake, where as a sword, or a fist with what you're telling me, will be ineffective.

Geez lol
You have an armor suit thats real,swords on the wall and a display case of swords

Yes that works too arsik or you could simply kick the vampire and collapse the armor suit on him
