Knife

Knives, Blade

A knife can cut ties or cut through confusion, so the way it was used tells you a lot. A century ago, knives were read as a hint of quarrels and separations. Today, a knife in your hand often shows you can make a clear decision or set a firm boundary. A knife pointed at you suggests sharp words or tension around you. In a kitchen scene, it may simply be about everyday tasks and getting things done.
