Knives have all kinds of superstitions concerning them.
To give a knife as a present is said to result in the severing of the relationship - not a good wedding present.
If you receive a knife pay the giver a penny to ensure you will remain friends and that the knife will not "turn on you"and cut you.
A knife falling from the table foretells of the immediate end of a love affair. or the arrival of a stranger.
"Stir with knife, stir up strife" is a common old saying.
Finding a knife in the road, or pretty much anywhere else is extreme bad luck... the only way to make it worse is to pick the knife up.

Why is crossing knives considered bad luck?
Knives are see as a small version of swords; crossed swords is a sign for war, conflict, danger etc. hence crossed knives are seen as unfortuitous. Also during the 17th and most of the 18th century and earlier sword dueling took the lives of many male family members throughout Europe until outlawed. At the beginning of every duel the protagonists crossed the tips of their swords and then began the duel to injury or death. Thus in Europe it became a sign of bad luck and possible death of a family member to leave knives crossed and every time they were found crossed to uncross them to relieve this potential bad luck.
