Hunter Knife

"A symbol of those who survive outside the protective walls of the City."

— Tom Doyle, Bungie Art Lead.

The Hunter's combat knife.

The Knife is a multipurpose combat knife utilized by Guardians of the Hunter class. The Hunter's Knife is a utilitarian melee weapon, designed to ensure versatility in close-quarters combat. Hunter's are capable of using the knife to silently eliminate their targets.

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.

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.
• The blade of the knife bears the insignia of the Hunter class.
