M9 Bayonet

A close-quarters military combat knife, and Chris Redfield's only available weapon at the beginning of the game. Although the player can save ammo by using this weapon, the character has to be within attacking range of the enemy, and thus it's generally considered a useless weapon. Some players try to do 'knife runs', where the game is completed using only the combat knife. It is recommended this weapon be disposed of as soon as possible, as it is almost impossible to properly utilise to any significant effect.
