Technically that may not even be a bug, though it is rather amusing. The K key activates the Knife modal operator, not the Knife tool, therefore the active tool remains Loop Cut. Since Knife is modal it consumes mouse events, so the active tool's state remains the same. It's a clash of the "new" active tool system and the "old" modal operator system.
