Athame Medieval Blade

The athame is traditionally a black handled ritual knife - sometimes associated with the element of Fire, sometimes the element of Air.  It never slices or cuts anything on the physical plane, but is used for directing energy - such as when one casts a circle.  It also sometimes represents the male aspect in the great rite enacted with the chalice.
