Combat Knife (2)

Your guide to the Combat Knife in Resident Evil CODE: Veronica X. Learn its locations and how to use it effectively against zombies and in the Battle Game.

Alright, let's talk about the trusty Combat Knife in Resident Evil CODE: Veronica X. It might seem basic, but this blade is a veteran survivor's first choice for a reason! ### Location You'll find the Combat Knife in a few spots: * Right at the start, there's one on a desk next to Rodrigo in the prisoner management office. This is usually Claire's starting knife. * When you switch over to Chris's part of the story, he'll already have one in his inventory. * Later, when you're playing as Chris in the Antarctic Base, you can find another one in the (2F) Antarctic hall. ### Gameplay This isn't just for show! Timing your knife swipes at a zombie's legs can actually make them collapse to the ground. This gives you a precious window to either line up a headshot with your firearm or just keep stabbing away while they're down. If you're quick and precise, you might even land multiple hits in a single attack, potentially taking down a zombie before it can even get back up. Something cool to notice: this is actually a S.T.A.R.S. knife! If you look closely (it's easier to see in the HD version), you'll see 'STARS' written on the blade. All characters perform horizontal swings with it. And for those of you diving into the Battle Game, every character starts with a knife. For Wesker, it's his *only* weapon initially, though you can find the Magnum later in the casino bar if you're lucky. ### Gallery Here's a look at where you can find the knife: * Claire's starting knife location in the Prisoner management office. * Chris's knife location in the Antarctic hall. ### Bibliography * Koichi Hamamura, ed (2001). _BIOHAZARD CODE:Veronica Kanzenban Kaitai Shinsho_.
