While metals can be maliable, it is more often a non-metal. Think dirt vs. a lead pipe.
Sodium is a metal element that is soft enough to be cut with a knife.

You would use CM or INCHES to measure a knife
No as a diamond is significantly harder then any knife material thus trying to do so would likely result in the knife edge being ruined. Although softer then diamond, this is the same reason granite or stone cutting boards shouldn't be used.
Possibly, but most likely you would just get a shock or the circuit breaker would trip before it killed you. A normally healthy person would have to be connected to it for a while before it was fatal.
Nonmetal.
Some metals, such as sodium and potassium, are soft enough to be cut with a knife. Nonmetals such as sulfur can also be cut with a knife due to their brittle nature. However, most metals and nonmetals are too hard to be cut with a knife.
An element that is soft and easy to cut cleanly with a knife is more likely to be a metal. Metals tend to have metallic bonds that allow layers of atoms to slide past each other easily, making them malleable and ductile. Nonmetals are usually brittle and cannot be easily cut with a knife.
Sodium is a metal element that is soft enough to be cut with a knife.
yes it can with a sharp knife
A person would want a sharp knife because a dull knife would render useless in all aspects of needing the knife in the first place. Unless the knife was being used as a screwdriver or something.

A sharp knife cuts much better than a blunt knife. A sharp knife is less likely skid off and cause an accidental wound.
Most likely solingen
On slippery, slick roads.
The likely word is "knife" (a cutting tool or blade).
