Butter Knife

The butter knife is a stabbing weapon found in Project zomboid. It takes about 3-6 decently aimed hits to kill a zombie. Paired up with its short range and its low knockback, it makes it unable to fight large groups of zombies. It is best used in last resort situations or in situations where one has to fight only 1-2 zombies at a time, because it is a stabbing weapon. The butter knife has extremely low door damage, so something else should be used to destroy doors. However, the butter knife is extremely lightweight. Unlike Spoon and Fork, Butter Knife can be used to perform deadly close skill move, Jaw Stab just like the Kitchen Knife, Screwdriver, Hunting Knife, Ice Pick and Letter Opener. It also have a bit more damage and range. Butter knives are abundant in kitchens just like most other stabbing weapons (Spoon, Fork, Kitchen Knife).
