    The knife reads “che la mia ferita sia mortale”, “may my wound be mortal”

      Not quite. “Mia” is mine or my. It reads “may my wound be mortal.”

        „My“ as in „the wounds I suffer“, or „the wounds I cause“?

          Indeed. It’s more of a declaration or curse to the recipient… “may my wounds I suffer (upon you) be mortal,” is how I read it. Suffer being a little less personal and more action oriented, as if to say “inflict upon.”
