Usage

Cooking

Main article: Cooking

A stone knife can be used to make cooking recipes.

This weapon can get bloody and can be used, but it currently only affects aesthetics and not makes the player (sick or infected).

Weapon

Pros	Cons
The stone knife is a one-handed blade weapon which is capable of dealing a one shot kill on zombies when the player performs a jaw stab animation. Since it's a one-handed weapon, the player can carry a bag in the other hand, but it is advised to have enough strength to do so.	Despite its fast attack rate, it has a short attack range, and it inflicts low damage to the zombies if the player can't jaw stab the target, making it a weapon hard to master. This weapon can only hit 1 target at a time. The player should make sure other zombies are far enough when engaging closest one in case jaw stab engages, or else by the time it's finished, the player can't move making an easy prey.

Breaking doors

It is very ineffective at bashing down doors, dealing only 1 damage per hit. For comparison, an axe deals 35 damage to that structure type.

Condition

The condition of the knife is influenced by the maintenance skill. It has a maximum condition of 10 and will be damaged depending on the player's maintenance skill.
The chance of losing durability is: 1 in (7 + maintenance x 2)

Repairing

A stone knife cannot be repaired.
