Everyone has heard at least once that you can’t eat with a knife.

But why exactly? What might happen in such a case? Hardly anyone knows the answer to these questions.

Signs

Ancestors believed that a knife was a special object that was used for cooking or during sacrifices.

It was believed that if you lick this device, you can anger the spirits.

In addition, when a person eats with a knife, he shows that he is not afraid of anything, which means that he can even intimidate the one who sees it.

That is why they said that he who eats with a knife risks becoming evil.

After all, only ancient people who hunted for prey, and therefore showed aggression, used knives to eat.

Logical explanation

It is dangerous. The thing is that it is very easy to get hurt. At the same time, there were no excellent drugs or other means of help before, which means that such a wound only threatened additional problems.

Besides, licking a knife is not the most hygienic procedure. It is better to take food from a fork or spoon.
