Knife/Tips

== Tips ==
Please note that most things listed in this section are not objective, and are not the "Correct" way to use them. This section is used to give advice to players who want to learn how to use their tools more efficiently.
* After receiving its much needed buff, the knife is quite capable of mincing enemies with ease. Capable of outputting high DPS, the knife is perfect for finishing off enemies with a slash or throw or getting in a quick hit to keep up the pressure.
* It is also very effective at getting players off of crystals in the Caves, as it is one of the few ranged Survivor Weapons in the game, and on-contact, causes the crystal to explode after a short delay.
**Additionally, its relative availability, supplemented by its spawns around the map, make it a must-have to have in your inventory.
* The Knife can be used to effectively disable any button-activated doorway in the game for a few seconds, meaning that if you're good at aiming while in a chase, it can be an effective strategy to throw your Knife at buttons to prevent other players from activating them.
**Alternatively, you could just directly throw it at them to finish them off.
***Or at a nearby crystal, if you can time it right.
* Despite its lack of stun, the knife is a great weapon in both offense and utility, making it a recommended weapon to carry.
