[[Image:Knife.jpg|thumb|250px|The Knife as seen in Grand Theft Auto IV]]

The '''Knife''' is a melee [[weapon]] in the [[Grand Theft Auto]] games. The knife is a moderate weapon that allows the player to attack without a firearm and, in [[GTA San Andreas]], allows stealth kills that don't attract unwanted attention. It takes up the "melee" weapon slot, similar to the [[Katana]] and the [[Baseball Bat]].

In [[GTA San Andreas]] it can be found at prostitutes near [[Carl Johnson|CJ's]] home in [[Grove Street]] in [[Ganton]], [[Los Santos]]. It is used in many missions in the game like [[Madd Dogg's Rhymes]], [[Amphibious Assault]], [[The Da Nang Thang]], [[Dam and Blast]] and [[Vertical Bird]]. The Knife is more than just a simple melee weapon, if [[Carl Johnson|CJ]] is crouching, and is aiming behind an opponent, and they don't notice him, he will execute a stealth kill, quietly slitting the victim's throat. Useful when the player is trying to avoid detection and doesn't have a [[Silenced 9mm]]. The Knife only produces one wanted star when used to stealth kill a police officer.

The GTA IV rendition of the Knife resembles the knife portrayed by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rambo Sylvester Stallone in the Rambo movies], and is similar in size and shape to the [http://www.buck-184.com/ Buck-184 Buckmaster] survival knife. It can be purchased from [[Little Jacob]] for the staggering amount of $100. Alternatively, it can be picked up from [[Eddie Low]] during his second encounter. It can also be taken from the second enemy in the mission [[Bleed Out]]. Although silent kills like in "San Andreas" are not in the game, 5 to 6 strikes with the knife will kill an opponent, and it will not warrant the player a [[Wanted Level in GTA IV | wanted level]].
