The knife is an edged weapon and cuts with every hit. Any new or amateur player can find it hard not to get sliced every once in a while, even while attempting a reversal. Remember to keep in mind how many times you get cut. Unlike regular hits done by punches and kicks, knife cuts don't heal well over time. That means that running away and resting isn't always a viable strategy to take. The best thing to do is either dodge, use a reversal to steal the knife, or kill the wielder. Also keep in mind that an enemy isn't going to fight hand to hand if there's a knife on the ground. Pick them up if you are able. | |||
'''BE WARNED:''' The claws on the hands and feet of wolves are like knives. They will put numerous cuts in only one swipe or kick. | |||
'''Knife on Offense''' | |||
Got a knife? Good, now you can end a fight with a bit more ease. Knives do more damage over time than kicks and punches and can usually get a quick kill in, if used effectively. Knife cuts make your enemy bleed; if you cut a guy a few times, in a few minutes he will eventually bleed to death (if you are patient and sadistic enough to wait). Reversals get a knife stabbing upgrade, which make them more deadly. Also a few good stabs will end in a cut throat finisher. Try your best to dodge reversals. If an enemy successfully blocks your stab, he'll be the new knife owner and you will have to go back to being on the defensive. | |||
'''BE WARNED:''' It's hard to hold on to a knife when you're getting smacked around. Your enemies will try to sweep kick and knock you down to get that knife away from you. Dodge and reverse and you should do just fine. | |||
