| Seeing an especially sharp or thoroughly polished knife while in a dreaming state is often interpreted as a sign that something important to you, either a person, situation, or object of sentimental value, is soon to cause you great distress and concern. This is most likely due to its (or in the case of a human, his or her) loss or degradation. Sharpened knives are also closely associated with material losses in a more general sense, indicating living a life of poverty or on the edge. This unfortunate financial situation is probably not your fault, and is instead likely caused by others who are jealous of you or dislike you for some reason. |  |
