Subject: Why is there?

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

Why is there a knife on Bucks shoulder at 1:23 and so on. There has been no knife in any Halo game.

Edit: Yes, i know it could be just for looks, but i was wondering why if anyone knew any info? And why would he be carrying it in a ship, if there hasn't yet been a knife in Halo CE, 2 or 3. And also Veronica (DARE) at 1:25 points to it when she pokes Buck. Probably doesnt mean anything though.

Its probably just for looks, just like the CQB chest plate in halo 3.

theres a knife in halo, and also why woulden't there be a knife? after all their melee isn't as good as spartans, also check the C.Q.B. body.

No, in Halo CE, 1 and 3 you haven't been able to use a knife -.-

Well, honestly idk. Well, why would he be carrying a knife around if there hasn't yet been a knife in a halo game?

Dude its just for looks, and if he uses it as a melee weapon it probably won't be while we're playing as him. There was a knife on the chest plate of the C.Q.B armor in halo 3, and whoever wore it didn't use a knife, so its just there.

ODSTs had a knife on their lower backs in Halo 2. It's a rather big knife. I don't know why a lot of people seem to ignore or forget about it.

-I was here

1) its probably just for decoration
2) have you ever seen a real marine, they all carry knives
3) marines and odsts dont have super human melee attacks so they need some sort of decent way to get up close and personal
4) its just a knife... deal with it.

your such a scrub! you think just because there has never been a knife in any halo game that no one ever used one in the halo storyline? remember halo wars? yeah exactly. The laser was never used in any halo games until halo 3, btw we probably wont even use the knife.

Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

Every military issues every soldier a combat knife. They are useful for many things from the most obvious to things you would never guess.

You can use it as a weapon, to help clear a jam, to reflect light as a signal, and even use them to pry bullets out of wounds in field medicine.

The CQB chest plate has a knife on it, as well as ODSTs having them sheathed on the small of their backs in Halo 2. In Gears of War just about every character has a knife somewhere on their armor.

You can't use any of those, why does Buck's knife suddenly mean we have a new weapon?
