A fillet knife is similar to a boning knife, but it has a longer and slightly narrower blade, and is used almost exclusively on fish. When the word fillet is used with meat, it’s used as a noun. But when it’s used with fish, it’s both a noun (“fillet of fish”) and a verb (“fillet that fish”). No one ever says, “fillet that cow.”
A sharp knife is nothing without a sharp eye.
No matter how sharp a knife is, it can never cut its handle.
The whetstone in a village does no blunt the knife.
Criticism should not be querulous and wasting, all knife and root-puller, but guiding, instructive, inspiring.
The tongue like a sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood.
