Is he on drugs?
Has he been seen by psychologists?
Does he take meds?
Has Children's Services been involved?
One place that I know is really great at changing teen's lives is Teen Challenge. There are also boot camps.

Has he been seen by a mental health professional. If he is a danger to himself or others he may need to be involuntarily committed to a hospital.

He needs to get elevated asap to see where all this violent behavior he coming from. How long has he been this way.
You can place in a boot camp but they are expensive. Most run in the thousand/s for each month.
You can contact social service because they have a program that helps parents with out of control kids. If it comes down to it, they would place him in a group home.
But I would try counseling and whenever he inflicts harm against you or anyone else, call the cops. Tough love is in order because he shouldn't be disrespectful to you or anyone else and threating to stab someone is something to be taken serious. Where is the father?

I just saw your other post, it wasn't there when I posted my response.
He sexual asualted his cousin and you knew he did it but you still took up for him. That was wrong because that only makes him think that he could away with things even though he's gulity. I know we as parents what to stand up and protect our kids but wrong is wrong and can you imagine how the cousin feels.
He needed help a long time ago and if he gets some now might can help but enable his wrong and don't be scare to call the cops.
My question to you is what have you done in the past to help him?

Yes sticking up for bad behavior, especially that bad, is being an enabler and giving him the idea he can do whatever he wants and walk all over you too in the process.
