Dreaming of a knife: meaning
Holding a knife may reflect the need to make a clear decision or set a firm limit. Cutting food with it can speak of practicality and dividing tasks.
Being threatened with a knife may point to feeling vulnerable or hurt by words. It is a symbol, not a warning, inviting you to notice where you need protection.
The message
A knife in a dream does not mean violence will happen. It is symbolic and often speaks of cutting ties, making decisions or words that may hurt.
For reflection
What in my life do I feel needs to be cut or ended?
Have any words, mine or someone else's, hurt me recently?
Questions

It may reflect clarity and the ability to decide, or sharp words that are on your mind.
