Never used in a sentence.

KGT 62:  Some other knives are ... the slender-bladed {ghonDoq}...

Is this a kind of Klingon stiletto?

A different kind of knife is used in the kitchen:

KGT 97:  Food-preparation knives, of which there are many types, come in different sizes and shapes for different cutting tasks... For finer work (such as making the slits in limbs needed to extract veins), a small {SIjwI'} (literally, "slitter") is commonly employed.
