We’ve been seing the combat knife since Halo 3: ODST (see Buck), but never got to use it until Reach, where it was only available for assassinations. I, personally, believe it’s time to make it a usable weapon. The first UNSC melee weapon, preferably a starter weapon like the Magnum and Plasma Pistol, and roughly a third as strong as the Energy Sword, or half as strong as the Scattershot.
I might be too into this, but I came up with potential weapon skins for this knife.
-Default
-Serrated
-Kukri
-So Pretty
-Gut Hook
-Butcher
-Carrot
Thoughts?
I can imagine a Spartan IV stabbing an Elite in the face with a carrot knife XD
Nah, I’ll be ok with just shooting people.

It’d be an epic achievement, too. Eat Your Veggies.
Completing the Campaign with just the Knife should get a 100G achievement called Veggie Tales. (I’m going to hell)

That’s fine. A lot of people don’t share that view, however.

It seems that an apple a day, does in fact, NOT keep the doctor away…
It could work, but they would probably have to make it a two hit kill. A one hit kill would encourage everyone to switch to their knife when someone was close. So a two hit kill but the benefit would have to be it would be faster than a normal melee.
It would make sense to have the speed of two hits just a bit slower than a melee and a headshot from a utility weapon. This way, a person with great aim could still beat a knifer. If they miss or take too long, the knife wins.

That’s a good point.
instead of making it a weapon id rather it stay for assassinations. but if we could have different looking knifes that would be pretty cool. kind of like how if you bought premium for BF3 you get a different looking knife. but its no better then the default one.
We’ve actually seen combat knives since Halo 2. ODSTs wore them on their lower backs.
The combat knife is a good idea, just flip to the third weapon (which was announced for Halo Inifite) you should ve equiped with the combat knife, good idea, I try!
I love the idea. I think many of us have wanted to see a knife in halo. Wish they kept the machete from the Pre Halo CE
