hot knife

Warmed cutting tool

A hot knife is a blade heated to cut or melt materials—plastics, foam, rope ends.

In cannabis culture, hot knives (or hot knifing) is a method of smoking hash or concentrates by pressing them between two heated knife blades and inhaling the smoke: We used to do hot knives on the stove back in college.
