Overview
Melee weapon crafted from bone fragments. Good for harvesting carcases.
Your first deer is down, you are holding a rock, and the carcass is coughing up scraps. Hit it a few more times, keep the bone fragments, and craft the knife on the spot. No bench, no metal, nothing to go home for.
From then on every animal you open pays better. A knife pulls more meat, leather and animal fat out of a body than a rock or a hatchet does. The leather becomes your first hide clothes, and the fat turns into low grade fuel with a bit of cloth. One good hunt with it can dress a fresh spawn from head to toe.
Bone is the material because bone is all you have. Once a Level 1 bench and a piece of high quality metal are in reach, the combat knife does the same work better and holds up in a fight. Until then, keep this one in the hotbar beside your spear, and stop skinning with tools that waste the animal.
