how does someone, e.g. a detective distinguish if a stab wound is made before or after death?

Don’t worry this isn’t anything alarming. I’m in the process of writing a whodunit and I just want to know if there are any signs that occur/do not occur in a stab wound that is made after death? Any answers would be a great deal of help. Thanks!

Blood pooling, if the stabbing occurred post mortem, then you would see minimal blood loss, blood loss doesn’t occur because the heart stops beating, less blood flow
