A Notation Knife

Knives with musical notes on the blades are known as notation knives. A notation is the written version of a physical process, such as the sound of music. Once it is written down it can be preserved and recreated. This knife is etched with notations expressing gratitude for a meal. On one side of the blade the inscription translates as, The blessing of the table. May the threeinone bless that which we are about to eat, to be sung before the meal is taken. On the other side the notation gives thanks after the meal: The saying of grace. We give thanks to you God for your generosity. The point of the knife allows meat or bread to be skewered and offered to a fellow diner. Notation knives are extremely rare. Find out more:
