Butcher Knife

The Butcher Knife is a rare melee weapon found at food stores in civilian locations.

Advantages

 * It can be swung very quickly, enabling it to deal more damage than its stats would otherwise suggest.
 * It is quite lightweight.

Disadvantages

 * It inflicts less damage-per-hit than either other type of knife.
 * It is rarer than other types of knives.
 * Its range is short, making it dangerous to use against zombies.

Trivia

 * Unlike the other two knives (the Pocketknife and Kitchen Knife), it is swung and held vertically.
 * Butcher knives are also commonly referred to as cleavers.
