I don't know what will happen, maybe the knife will burn up or something, I don't know. But, I do know it probably won't phase him at all, he might even laugh at the attempt (figuring the Bombadil character is a jolly, singing, big man). Bombadil is a mystical character, we know it won't harm him, because as we hear from Glorfindel in the Council of Elrond "Bombadil was first as he is last" and it would take all of Sauron's might to overthrow Bombadil, but Glorfindel does think Sauron could defeat Bombadil if all of Sauron's might is forced upon him.
