Knife
Psychological (Freud)
In depth psychology the knife often gives shape to repressed aggression or a sharp urge to sever a tie that has become suffocating. Its blade can equally mirror a decision ripening inside the dreamer, the wish to cut cleanly through an inner entanglement.
Oriental reading
In Oriental and Islamic dream lore, in the spirit of Ibn Sirin, the knife commonly signifies strength, protection and a faithful helper or servant. A sharp, clean knife heralds rights secured and power gained, while a blunt or broken one points to weakness in a dispute.

Dream interpretation is for self-reflection and entertainment — it is not a medical or psychological diagnosis.
