The idiom before you can say knife means very quickly, but in this sentence it is used to describe how slowly someone's name will be taken off the door if they don't do as they're told.
Given the statement "You will become whatever you have to be to make this company run smoothly, or your name will come off that door only after a very long time!.", is the statement "You 'll be whatever you have to be to make this company run smoothly, or your name will come off that door before you can say knife!" wrong?
