so I cannot even entertain an answer.
scribbling all over something to 'reveal' a secret like that doesnt do it for me, any better references to go by? A better quality image perhaps?

Leonardo probably encoded all sorts of messages in this painting, both political and religious.
I doubt the knife has any other significance other than to highlight Judas, if you notice Andrew is looking in disbelief with his hands up so it's hardly subliminal, it's part of the story.edit on 27-11-2010 by digitalf because: ats image embed

you should post a high resolution image of the painting in question so people can review it and not the low quality video.

the second video is 2:34 in length.
also see my high res photo extract above, grab a knife and hold it behind your back - that is what you see imo.

sure i understand that 1499 was a long time ago but I think the specific position of the knife carried by Judas in this picture was intentional to show the nefaroris and calculating traits of the character and certainly not to hide a secret assasin.

No...it's not clear who is holding the knife....' the forearm holding knife' is a disarticulated image,
go to the linked image & left click the dark and bearded apostle (?Judas) the close up will
give you a view angle that eliminates every apostle there as being the one holding the knife,
the supposed effiminate 'Mary' would need the arm length of an Orangatang to be the one
with the knife...and the apostle (?Peter) directly behind the Judas character would need to have a compound
breaking of the arm for him to be wielding a knife...
my guess is that Vinci has the knife coming from the underworld/ unseen realmedit on 27-11-2010 by St Udio because: (no reason given)

Explanation: The knife is Peter's. He has it pointed towards the table, away from him with his right hand knuckles pointed down and facing his right hip as he leans back up and to the left [his] and converses with the apostle directly behind the young apostle directly at the table to his left.

Explanation: OL can see that Grand Master Davinci was testing his artistic skills and talents out to the very limits of his capacity to do so by contorting this character so as to give the picture some depth and to help tell a/the story!
