A hand fork is a one-handed, short blade melee weapon. It can be attached to a spear.

Usage

Farming

The hand fork can be used similar to a shovel or trowel as a way of tilling grass for farming.

Weapon

Pros Cons
  • Fast attack rate.
  • Capable of dealing a one shot kill on zombies when the player performs a jaw stab animation.
  • The player can carry a bag in the other hand because it is a one-handed weapon.
  • Short attack range, low damage.
  • Can only hit one target at a time.
  • Can get stuck in a zombie after a jaw-stab animation.

Condition

The hand fork has a maximum condition of 6. Its rate of degradation is influenced by the short blade and maintenance skills. The chance of losing durability can be simplified to the following formula: 1 in (9 + maintenanceMod × 2). Where "maintenanceMod" is calculated using the short blade and maintenance skills.
Below is an example of the chance of losing durability at varying levels of the maintenance and short blade skills.

For how this is calculated, see: Condition
Maintenance skill Weapon skill Durability lower chance
0 0 1/9 (11%)
0 4 1/11 (9%)
0 8 1/13 (8%)
4 0 1/13 (8%)
8 0 1/17 (6%)
4 4 1/15 (7%)
4 8 1/17 (6%)
8 8 1/21 (5%)
10 10 1/23 (4%)
