Maximum allowable (or ideal) knock readings

What kind of readings are ideal for knock? I just want to make sure that I know what's to be expected and what's approaching blowing my motor. A few examples of WOT would be good. Thanks.

at cruising, or on and off throttel my readins range from 15 to 75. Others have told me to basically disregard the readings except at WOT.

at WOT I get like 25-40, 40 usually being at transition. you shoudl see the knock immediately drop off as you slam the gas down.

All cars give differnt readings, basically you are looking for much leower readings at wot and steady somewhat through redline. AQnd no abnormalities. like all of a sudden 128 knock or something.
