The expression is actually relatively new, historicaly speaking, according to this english historian at http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-tou1.htm
You don't really have to knock on wood just because your friends say to. The tree fairies / tree gnomes aren't going to get angry for your lack of knocking, rest assured.
