27. Knife
• Knives are a commonly used tool that we often
take for granted. We expect them to perform and
cut with ease, but we rarely pay any more
attention to our knives than that. To understand
your knife, it is important to learn about its
construction and be able to identify the various
knife parts.
• First, it is easy to divide the knife into two main
parts, the handle and the blade. But each of
those two parts can also be subdivided into its
own parts. With the help of the photo at right and
the descriptions below, you will better understand
what components make up your knife.

28. The Part of a Knife
• Point – The point is the part of the knife where the edge and spine come
together. The point is often used for piercing.
• Tip – The tip is the forward part of the knife and includes the knife point. The tip
is used detailed or delicate cutting.
• Edge – The edge is the cutting part of the blade. It extends from the point to the
heel of the knife.
• Heel - The heel is the rear part of the edge, opposite the point.
• Spine - The spine is the top of the knife blade, opposite the knife edge.
• Bolster - The bolster is the band that joins the blade of the knife to its handle.
The bolster provides balance for the knife and also helps to protect the hand
from getting in the way of the knife edge.
• Tang - The tang is the part of the blade that extends into the handle of the knife.
It is the surface to which the handle attaches to the blade.
• Scales – The scales are the part of the knife that creates the handle. Scales are
often made of synthetic material or wood. Two scales are typically attached to the
tang with rivets.
• Rivets – The rivets are metal pins used to join the scales to the tang to form the
handle.
• Butt – The butt is the end of the handle of the knife.
