It’s a long held common belief that you should never give a knife as a present, because it will cut the ties of friendship. The only way around this is to accept a small token usually a coin in return.
For women wanting to cut links with unwanted lovers, though, the knife is an ideal present.
Present it to the man, refusing any gifts in return, and that should get rid of him for once and for all.
A knife spun on a table-top, however, may point at your lover-to-be.
How ever, in this crazy world of today, be careful when doing this because the knife might turn into a murder weapon.
