It is very difficult to determine certain aspects of a killer when he was never caught or identified. For over 100 years it was commonly thought that the killer known as Jack The Ripper killed for the first time when he killed Mary Ann (Polly) Nichols on August 31, 1888, but is now generally accepted that Nichols was not the Ripper's first victim and possibly not even his second. Martha Tabram, found murdered in the early morning hours of August 6-7, 1888, was almost surely JTR's victim also. Whether he killed prior to Tabram's murder we may never know, but it is safe to say that his crimes began in earnest in 1888.

If you mean Jack the Ripper, he killed his victims with a knife, cutting the throats of women and then cutting out vital organs.
No. He killed five victims in 1888
It is very probable that his first victim was in London.
With few exceptions*, the Ripper's crimes were contained within London's east end known as the Whitechapel and Spitalfields districts. Home to the poorest of the poor, the Ripper preyed on victims that were at a serious disadvantage, mostly alcoholic and homeless prostitutes.
If you mean Jack The Ripper it is impossible to tell due to the fact that there are differing opinions on who his first victim was.
i belive it was a long butchers knive it needs to be a strong blade to do the work needed to get the organs however it could be a knive from where he worked a hospital

It is presumed 'Jack' used a knife.
Jack killed 30 September 1888.
for me rizal is the number one suspect for being JTR Jose Rizal is possibly Jack the Ripper. Rizal's acts are unknown when he left the library or at night. He has a love of women and so as Jack the Ripper. He is a doctor and highly educated and Jack the Ripper uses medicine to kill his victims and cut off their body parts. For me it's 70 percent the Jose is Jack the Ripper. As per discussion it is highly unlikely that Rizal would be JTR. JTR had a hatred for women which is evident in his murders. He had to blend in to the east end and I doubt a person of hispanic decent would blend in at all. It is also evident from the butchered bodies of his victims that JTR had no special medical training and there has never been any evidence that would indicate the killer used medicine to kill his victims. Their throats were slit, almost to the point of decapitation, and then the were gutted like a fish. This is not the work of someone who loves women.
