2162. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever points a piece of iron at his brother, the angels curse him." (Sahih)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abū Bakrah, 'Aishah, and Jābir.
This Hadīth is Hasan Sahih Gharīb from this route, is considered strange as a narration of Khālid Al-Ḥadh-dhā'. Ayyūb reported a similar narration from Muḥammad bin Sīrīn, from Abū Hurairah, but he did not narrate it in Marfū' form, and he added in it: "Even if he was his brother, from his mother or his father."

Commentary
Pointing a piece of iron, such as knife, dagger or sword at a Muslim brother, even in play, has the effect of creating discomfort and fear in his mind. That is why angels send their curse on him.
