I always just use a cold stick of butter like a crayon. Grab the hot toast and wipe the butter on it straight from the stick. Butter knives are only for room temperature butter.

I also use this method to apply butter to a hot pan when making grilled cheese! Just melt a little patch and place the bread, cheese, then bread. When is time to flip, hold the sandwich on the spatula while applying butter to the pan for the other side.

No hate to those that prefer mayo, but I love that buttery crunchiness.
