A fork is a blade melee weapon.

Usage

Weapon

The fork is an emergency weapon with extremely low damage and cannot perform the instant kill jaw stab, which most one-handed blade weapons can do. It is also highly ineffective in a defensive situation, as it will never knockdown an opponent and only knock them back a very short distance.

The fork has a very short range, making it very dangerous when fighting zombies, however it does have a quick attack. It is a single-attack weapon, hitting just 1 opponent with each swing. Forks are pretty much useless in combat and should only be equipped in an emergency, or if smashing a window.

Breaking doors

It is most ineffective at bashing down doors, dealing just 1 damage per hit. For comparison, an axe deals 35 damage.

Chopping trees

It cannot be used to chop trees, dealing 0 damage per hit. For comparison, an axe deals 35 damage.

Condition

The fork is a blade weapon, therefore being influenced by the blade skills: accuracy, guard and maintenance. It has a maximum condition of just 3 and will be damaged depending on the player's maintenance skill. The chance of losing durability is: 1 in (1 + maintenance x 2)

Repairing

A fork cannot be repaired.

Distribution

Forks are an incredibly common household item found in kitchen counters.

Out of all the basic cutlery (butter knife, fork, spoon), the fork, similar to the spoon is a extremely low damage weapon which cannot perform the insta-kill jaw stab which comes with the [[Butter Knife]] or other advanced knives. Every hit on a zombie reduces the item condition falling by 1, and having a max of 3, it means you only get 3 hits with the fork before it breaks.

-The fork is a single attack weapon, meaning it can only concentrate on one zombie at a time, attacking two at a time is risky as only one zombie will be stopped per hit and the other could get in close enough to damage the character.

-One if the benefits of the fork is that it is plentiful in the game world and is quite light. The fork cannot be repaired. It is recommended you use the Butter Knife compared to the fork if truely out of weapons at the start.
