Olivia Sinclair (19) had already admitted behaving in a threatening manner at her 22 Sinclair Place, Falkirk home on December 25 last year, telling her partner she would stab him and then actually striking a door with the weapon.
Sheriff Derek Livingston noted a previous missed appointment by Sinclair, but gave her the benefit of the doubt, deferring sentence until March 18.
