our circa 1911 home has one section that’s all knob and tube. when we bought the house, we tried to get an electrician to come in to update all the wiring, but we couldn’t get anyone to do it. they all said basically the same thing: the knob & tube works, and it’s safe, so why mess with it? it kinda freaks us out, though, so we don’t plug anything in more than lamps and a stereo in those rooms.
