The '''Knife''' is a multipurpose combat knife utilized by [[Guardian]]s of the [[Hunter]] class. The Hunter's Knife is a utilitarian [[melee]] weapon, designed to ensure versatility in close-quarters combat. Hunters are capable of using the knife to silently eliminate their targets.<ref name= "Destiny Drawing Board">[http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-The-Hunters-Knife/en/News/News?aid=11269 '''Bungie''': ''Destiny Drawing Board: The Hunter's Knife'']</ref>

In the [[Gunslinger]] subclass, the knife doubles as a throwing knife. It can be thrown at enemies when its melee timer is fully charged; otherwise, the player will just stab with the knife. In the [[Bladedancer]] subclass, the knife is used as part of the [[Arc Blade]] [[super]] by being infused with Arc Light.

== Trivia ==
*Early in the development of ''[[Destiny]]'', it is possible that the knife would be the standard melee weapon for all classes as footage from the E3 2013 gameplay reveal depicted a [[Warlock]] wielding the weapon.<ref name="E3 2013 Demo">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXTXPe7JIUk '''E3 2013 Destiny Gameplay Demo''']</ref> This has since been changed in the Alpha, now that Warlocks and Titans get their own melee attacks in the form of Palm and Punch, respectively.
*The blade of the knife bears the insignia of the Hunter class.
*In [[Destiny 2]], the knife is used by all Hunter subclasses except the [[Arcstrider]]. The player instead uses their own fist to melee, similarly to Titans.

-In the [[Gunslinger]] subclass, the knife doubles as a throwing knife. Gunslingers carry a large supply of knives, which they charge with [[Solar]] energy to cause burns, explosions, or just massive damage to the targets they throw them at. Their [[Blade Barrage]] [[Super]] throws several of these charged knives at the same time.
-In the [[Bladedancer]] subclass, the [[Arc Blade]] Super infuses the knife with [[Arc]] energy to massively extend its blade, damage and reach.
-[[Nightstalker]]s mostly use smoke bombs and bows, but pull out two knives infused with [[Void]] for their [[Spectral Blades]] Super.
-[[Arcstrider]]s mostly fight with their fists of a charged staff, but their [[Storm's Edge]] Super employs a knife as a focus for teleportation.
-[[Threadrunner]]s latch their [[Strand]] power to their knives, turning them into a ''Threaded Spike'' they can throw across enemies with the melee or wield as a rope dart with the [[Silkstrike]] Super.
