will greatfull help!

@bogdan explanation below...

tldr: i've summarized explained found this video tutorial

if haven't figured out how use knife tool in sculpting, think may due initial brush size settings of tool being large, (perhaps large it's off visible screen). fix this, press , hold ctrl+b while click , hold left-mouse-button, @ same time (while pressing both ctrl+b , lmb), slide mouse left , if works, should see large circle close-in on small cursor dot. brush size decreasing appropriate size.
can after selecting knife tool, on side toolbar (the panel along left-side of maya) find same knife tool , double-click on knife-tool (last tool used), knife tool settings can adjusted there, decrease brush size , should able use knife tool expect.

hope helps!
