The Combat Knife is a melee weapon featured in Half-Life: Opposing Force and used by Adrian Shephard. It can be found plunged into the back of a dead Vortigaunt in a cave, and later in an office before reaching the Lambda Complex. Its appearance is similar to that of the classic KA-BAR knife.
Overview[edit]
- A step up from the Pipe Wrench, the knife does less damage per hit and has no secondary attack, but has a considerably faster rate of attack.
- The knife is best used for conserving ammo while fighting weakened enemies and breaking open supply crates.
- Its speed is identical to the Crowbar, but it deals twice as much damage, and can sometimes instantly kill humans from behind and instantly kill Headcrabs when they attack.
Behind the scenes[edit]
A combat knife can also be seen attached on the Human Sergeant's belt, although it is only part of his textures. A unused "charging" animation can also be found in the files for the Combat Knife, it was probably cut due to the Pipe Wrench doing exactly the same.
