Forged knife

***Information on this page is checked and up to date with the current version v.796.***
*" Nikita gave me this knife when we got back from Kiev slaughterhouse. Like his father Kiril said, 'When your rifle misfires, when your grenade doesn't go off, when your friend runs - all you'll have left is your knife'. "*

## Details

The Forged Knife shares the same blueprint as the Steel Knife but has 100 less durability than the Steel Knife. It can be used as a melee weapon or as a knife tool for various purposes.

It can only be obtained in the Slaughterhouse text quest in the Searching for Truth quest. This knife will break (and could be repaired), rather than disappear, after fully used.

## **Obtaining**

### Background Story

This knife is originally owned by Kiril (Nikita's father). Nikita will give the narrator this knife after he completes the quest. Nikita will give it as a gift to the narrator after he makes him realize that Gavrilov is not solely responsible for the death of his father. He realized that his ego "to be recognized by others as a man who can fight the wolves" had made him take away the full-magazine rifle to fight the wolves alone. This action led the rest of the fighters (including Kiril) to be less prepared in fight and died.

### Completing the Mission

**STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE ON HOW TO GET THE KNIFE:**

First, there will be a few dialogues, but obtaining the knife is not affected by these ones. Here is what he should say: · When Gavrilov says "any questions?", the narrator can say whatever is in the answers' list, even more than once. What you say here is not going to affect anything. · Then, Gavrilov will ask the narrator to go and find Nikita. When the narrator sees him, start chatting with him and he can get to know a little bit more about Nikita's life and the knife. There will be four things the narrator can say: asking about Nikita's knife, who taught him to crave, if he blames Gavrilov for his father's death or saying that he can talk with the narrator about his feelings and that he can help him. You just have to pick all of these questions from the last to the first (so 4, 3, 2, 1) and he will reply to everything the narrator asks.
· The third choice the narrator will need to make is choosing how to attack the wolves. He can either:

- Attack the awaken wolves (best choice): six men die.

- Attack the sleeping ones: seven men die (including Yury).

- Refuse to make groups split: eight men die (including Yury).

Gavrilov dies whatever the narrator does, but rest assured: he will get answers when he returns to the survivors‘ camp.

AFTER THIS, THE NARRATOR BECOME THE LEADER, SO BE VERY CAREFUL: EVERY CHOICE YOU MAKE WILL DIRECTLY AFFECT THE STORY AND WETHER HE OBTAINS THE KNIFE OR NOT.

Once the narrator gets in the slaughterhouse, you can choose from the narrator becoming the first one in the queue, the last one or stay in the middle. HE MUST GO LAST, no matter what he wants to obtain. This way, he will have with him the highest number of survivors he can get before the final battle (though one will die): himself, Nikita, Yury and Gavrilov. Now you must choose: each man who survives will give the narrator an item at the end of the quest. Gavrilov will give the narrator two F-1 Grenades, Yuri an SVDand Nikita his knife. You must choose the one who is going to wear the explosive vest (so, who will die): If you pick Nikita, he dies and will not give the narrator the knife. If you pick Gavrilov, he will be to afraid to do it, so Nikita steals the vest from him and makes himself explode. If you leave it to fate, it will be Gavrilov, with the same result. If the narrator goes himself, Nikita will trick him, steal the vest and will make himself explode.

So, if you want the knife, you must pick Yury, who will die. Note that you must choose between this knife and the SVD of Yury (quite rare and hard to find, but there are other ways to acquire it and it is not actually needed if the narrator has stuff like AK, Ppsh and grenades). The grenades from Gavrilov are therefore items that the narrator will eventually obtain.
