Subtle Knife - what is it?

The Subtle Knife is a book written by Phillip Pullman and is the second installment in the series his Dark Materials.
In the series the Subtle Knife is a knife used to cut "windows" or "doors" to other worlds
the Subtle Knife is also known by the Greek name Æsahættr which translates into English as "God Destroyer" or Teleutaia makhaira which translates to "the last knife"
No known material was able to resist the knife, although it was breakable, should the wielder attempt to use it whilst thinking about a person they loved. It was the belief of certain individuals that this was because the knife was incapable of cutting through love.

He used the Subtle Knife to cut through worlds.
