1. It is a fact. If it is that tight that you are 100% sure that no water can get in, then it is a chatzitza. The reality is that the body gets wet under every bathing suit, even the lycra so it's not a chatzitza. 2. Please clarify the question. A pool that is full of Mayim Sheuvim is not a good mikva, but I suspect that that is not what you meant. 3. no - they clean the knife before they cut any other things, for business reasons. CYA
