Interpretations of Dreams (Ibn Raashid Al-Bakri Al-Qafsi, Darussalam tr.) · p. 253

In my view, knives and scissors are indicative of positions ofauthority, but scissors are more so, because they are sharper and oneside of the scissors cannot cut without the other. One of them said: The knife that is used to sharpen pens is indicativeof a grown - up son who is praiseworthy. And it was said that whoever seesan iron knife in his hand and has a wife whom he divorced (revocabletalaaq) will take her back, because Allah says: "Say (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)): 'Be you stones or iron.'"[Al-Isra' 17:50]
