How to Use Fighting Knife

Be Mindful of Knives' Durability

All Knives have durability and the Fighting Knife isn't an exception. Simply swinging them on a breakable object can chip away their durability.

Don't worry, as you can still repair knives once they've broke at the Merchant.

Parry Attacks

The Fighting Knife can parry different attacks, including thrown weapons and straight-out punches. However, parrying attacks consumes durability, so try not to do it all the time and dodge by running or crouching when you have the option.

Also, parrying stronger attacks, like the Chainsaw Man's chainsaw, can quickly destroy the Combat Knife, so try to avoid fighting those enemies head-on!

How to Parry Attacks

Break Free from a Grapple

You can immediately escape a hold or a grapple with your Fighting Knife by pressing the Melee Button quickly. However, it is not possible to do if someone grabbed you from behind. You can press the Interact Button continuously instead to break free quickly.

Take note that you won't be able to do this once you're knife is broken!

Sneak Attack for an Instant Kill

Since the Fighting Knife has a decent durability, you can use it to perform sneak attacks on several enemies before it breaks. Successfully doing a sneak attack will lead to an instant kill, which will save you some ammo and reduce the risk of getting damaged.
