If the knife falls to the floor, then, according to a common belief, one should prepare to meet the guest. And the man will be the visitor. However, this belief in each particular case has a different interpretation, and in order to understand where the knife actually falls, one should pay attention to how exactly this happened. 
If the knife fell to the floor – you should prepare to meet the guest
Where does the knife fall?
You can predict what the meeting will be like by the blade of the knife and its handle.
- If the knife slips out of your hands and falls to the floor with its tip towards you, then here the meaning of the signs is as follows: a man who is in a hurry to visit is hostile towards you. People say that if the blade after falling is turned in your direction, then this means that the guest carries negative energy with him, and therefore communication with this person will not bring good and, quite possibly, everything will end in a quarrel.
- If the object falls with the handle in your direction, you should not be afraid of conflict situations. The guest may come suddenly, without a preliminary call, but in any case, the meeting will not bring any problems and will pass calmly.
- A knife fell and at the same time hit the handle on the floor – in this case, a close person, an old friend, a good acquaintance is rushing to you. The meeting promises to be quiet and pleasant.
- If you are really waiting for a friend or person whom you have not seen for a long time, and want to spend time with him, then the popular belief advises to pick up the knife from the floor and put it on the edge of the table. The item should not be removed until the welcome guest calls at the door.
- If you dropped a knife, on the handle of which there are patterns or painting, then the omen says that the visitor will bring good news.
- When an object with an even straight blade falls, it promises a meeting with a very pleasant companion. The person suddenly remembered about you and decided to stop by to spend a few hours in your company. In general, communication will be neutral, without any shocks and provocations.
- If the blade is serrated, then wait for a guest who is pursuing a specific goal. Such a meeting will not be spontaneous, usually it is planned, and therefore you, most likely, guess who will soon be standing on the threshold of your house.
If you have several knives stored, but always the same one falls, pay attention to the signs – it is this device that will tell the truth.
If you fell to the floor and stuck
If the knife fell and at the same time stuck with the blade, then beliefs in this case promise a visit from a stranger. However, here again it is worth paying attention to its position.
- When it pierces the floor and at the same time the point is not looking in your direction, the meeting with a stranger will be empty. Perhaps a new neighbor will knock on your door to meet you, or a salesman of household appliances will come to you with the aim of suggesting some curious novelty.
- If you drop a knife to the floor and at the same time notice that the blade is directed at you, the omen advises you to be careful. A stranger can turn out to be a dangerous person, for this reason, in the near future, you should not let strangers into your house. It's better not to open the door at all if there is a person behind it you don't know.
If broke
If the knife fell to the floor and broke, then signs call such an event a bad sign. When the handle breaks or the blade breaks off, this promises a series of troubles: quarrels, conflicts and various troubles.
After such a fall of the knife, you should collect all the fragments and discard them. According to popular belief, it is not worth repairing the item, otherwise it will constantly attract trouble. If the knife falls off the table and breaks, then its parts are simply sent to the trash can and the words are said: 'The knife breaks, grief does not concern me.'
Fell while slicing bread
Superstitions advise you to cut the bread with caution, because if at the same time the knife slips out of your hands and falls to the floor, then this is very bad. Belief in this case promises the death of someone from close relatives and friends.
Neutralization will take
If a sign says that an uninvited guest will soon appear on the doorstep, and you do not want to see anyone, then in this situation it is necessary to knock on the table with the handle three times and say the following words: 'Stay at home, do not go for a walk, do not come to us' . According to legends, your message will be sent to the visitor and he will change his plans.
The people say that after a conspiracy has been uttered, unforeseen obstacles will arise in the person's path, circumstances will change and he will have to change plans.
When the knife falls while slicing bread, then in this case, you should also knock the handle on the table three times, but only in complete silence. It is believed that this will help prevent trouble. Whatever troubles the omen promise you, such an action will protect you from them.
And remember not to take knife beliefs too seriously, even if it has a negative connotation. An accidental oversight often carries absolutely no mystery. To calm down, it is enough to knock on the table with the handle of the fallen knife and just forget about the bad omen.
It should not further influence your thoughts and life in general. After all, something that we constantly think about usually happens. And if the thoughts are bright, then the future will appear like that.
