Shadow Knives

Shadow Knives is a melee weapon featured in CrossFire. The concept of this weapon is from the dual knives of the Shadow Warriors at their backs.

Overview[]

This melee weapon features a dark and grayish texture with the sharped edged model, which is the same with the dual knives of the Shadows that are located at their back on the waist, hence the name. This weapon shares similar animation with the Invisible Assassin Sword, but the LMB attack is faster and consists of two quick slashes per click (similar to Dual Karambit) and can kill an unarmored player in one hit (HS) and two hits on the body. The secondary attack is also unique in which player character stab both knives forward (similar to Keris), resulting in one-hit-kill anywhere on the body.

Trivia[]

This weapon was the most requested melee weapon since the players think that it is useless to see that a Shadow is bringing three melee weapons, yet the two melee weapons, which are the Shadow Knives, are at their backs only as a design, and it seems very useless. Somehow, Tencent QQ fulfilled the request the players had.
Before the 2.0 update, the preview image in Black Market in CF Vietnam shows only one knife instead of two, but the item icon correctly shows 2 knives. This is presumably a texture glitch.
CF Vietnam's description claims that this weapon belongs to Shadow Warriors, leading people to believe that it's only available when playing Shadow Mode. In reality, it functions like any other melee weapon and can be used in all game modes.
