A butter knife is a kitchen utensil designed specifically for spreading butter, margarine, or other soft spreads. It typically has a blunt edge, which makes it safe to use and prevents cutting into bread or other foods. Butter knives are often made from stainless steel, plastic, or wood, and they come in various shapes and sizes. These knives are commonly found in households and restaurants, often included in place settings alongside forks and spoons. While primarily used for butter, they can also be used for spreading other soft toppings like cream cheese or jam. Kitchen Utensils Spreads
