Answer

Is it legal to threaten someone with a knife in Spain or Mallorca?

No. Threatening another person with a knife is not a harmless reaction and can create immediate danger as well as legal trouble. Even if the disagreement began with noise or frustration, showing a weapon changes the situation into something much more serious.
