You shouldn't delete it while amule is running, but basically you can safely delete it, it's only the history of finished downloads...

It also contains the already downloaded files' complete AICH hashsets.
If the known2.met is deleted, the AICH hashset has to be recalculated, when another client requests it, since it is not stored in the known2.met any longer,which can take some time.   ;)
But one can surely delete it anyway.
