"κνώδαλον" meaning in Ancient Greek

See κνώδαλον in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /knɔ̌ː.da.lon/, /ˈkno.ða.lon/, /ˈkno.ða.lon/, /knɔ̌ː.da.lon/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈkno.da.lon/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈkno.ða.lon/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈkno.ða.lon/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈkno.ða.lon/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Frisk assumed that this word and κνώδων (knṓdōn, “projecting teeth on the blade of a hunting spear”), κνώδαξ (knṓdax, “pin, pivot”) go back to a verbal noun *κνωδ- (*knōd-, “tooth, biter, gnawer”), belonging to κναίω (knaíō, “to scrape, scratch”). The glosses κάναδοι (kánadoi, “jaws”), κναδάλλεται (knadálletai, “gnaws”) belong here too. The words do not belong to Latvian kost (“to bite”). According to Beekes, they are undoubtedly Pre-Greek, since κναδ- cannot continue an Indo-European pre-form.
