some simple ideas
one classic knife cut effect would be to take your knife and grind away the edge so it isnt sharp. make a small blood pump with a tube that extends alone one side of the blade, the pump is on the handle. so the actor draws the dull knife across the skin of another actor and squeezes the pump, the blood out the tube on the back of the blade leaving a trail of blood, making it look like a cut.
i would suggest using this with wide shots because of the fact that it isnt a very detailed effect. id use this effect for a wide or mid shot and using either a prosthetic or a cut created with nose and scar wax for your closeup.
just some thoughts i hope they make sense.
