Bought a great album yesterday by obscure rockers "boysetfire" that features a song "my life in the knife trade"

Any other cutting edge music come to mind?
 
Dire Straights did a song called 'Six-blade Knife' for the movie Desperado.

Of course you can't forget the biggest knife song of all time -- Mack the Knife.

Yeah, I know it's not about knives, but it's got history behind it.

Oh, and don't forget Bryan Adams' "Cuts Like a Knife."
 
"Johnny Blade" by Black Sabbath on their Never Say Die album. Poor Johnny's only friend is a switchblade knife according to the song

Lets not forget "The Ballad of Jim Bowie", I bet some of the Boomers remember that one from the TV show.
 
Tom T. Hall's Salute to a Switchblade. Funniest knife song ever.

Any of you that are familiar with the search and retrieval of MP3s, look for this one. It's hillarious.

Got to have something from the pretentious art rock contingent here . . . how about "The Knife" by Genesis (off the Trespass album), and "Knife Edge" by ELP.

 
- "Switchblade"- Duke Ellington w/ Max Roach & Chas. Mingus from the album "Money Jungle"
- "Drug Stabbing Time"- The Clash from "Give 'em Enough Rope"

"Jim Bowie, Jim Bowie,
He was a bold, adventurin' man,
He battled for right with a powerful hand.
His blade was tempered and so was he,
Indestructable steel was he,
Jim Bowie, Jim Bowie,
He was a bold, adventurin' man."

God, I haven't heard that in, what 45 years? And I still remember it! Goes to show you what an effect it had on this impressionable lad. I still love bowies, they're my favorite knife!

Don't forget Elton Johns Saturday Nights Alright for fighting." I'll tell you about the sounds I really like the sounds of a switchblade and a mototbike" or is this a biker song? oh well.

BTW Brian Setzer's song is switchblade 327
