Boline

A boline (also seen spelled bolline or boleen) is a working knife that traditionally has a white or brown handle. It is generally used for mundane tasks, such as cutting herbs.

Book of Shadows

A Book of Shadows is a sort of magickal scrapbook and journal. It is a compilation of the Wiccan practitioner´s spells, recipes, beliefs, code of ethics, etc.

A coven may have its own Book of Shadows, and some families have a Book of Shadows that may be passed down from generation to generation.

Athame

An athame is a ritual knife that is used in various magickal workings. It is usually double edged with a sharp point. The athame is never used for cutting of mundane objects, but is used in ritual and magick to direct energy to a specific purpose, such as casting a circle. The athame is also symbolic of the element of Fire, and thus is associated with masculine energies.

Traditionally the athame had a black handle, but today they are available in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes.

Another quick tip, the word is usually pronounced "ah-thah-may" ... not "ah-thaym" :-)
