Knife

Knife (Pathologic 2)=

The Knife is a melee weapon. It sports fast attacks and deals high damage, especially when backstabbing (done by sneaking up behind the target in stealth mode (C by default) and attacking). It cannot be used for autopsy.

Knives can be bought from Bad Grief. A knife in poor condition can be found in one of the drawers in Lara Ravel's house, The Shelter, on Day 1. As with the other melee weapons, it can be repaired (either by asking the townsfolk or using the workbench in the Lair) with:

- a Grindstone at >66% condition;

- a Grindstone and a Chisel at 33%-66% condition;

- a Grindstone, a Chisel, and a Straight Razor at <33% condition.

"An ordinary meat-cutting knife. Can be used as a melee weapon. Not as good as a sharp scalpel in a face to face fight, but can instantly kill if stabbing the back. Becomes dull and brittle after about half a hundred blows."
