“ A crude pole made of wood with an equally crude metal spike tied to it. It's long enough to slice from a distance, but it's crude construction means it won't last long ”

Notes

The knife spear takes some time to make but is entirely doable for early survivors. You can find the recipe under weapons in the crafting menu (&).

Begin by finding a long stick, easily obtained in a forest by smashing apart a young tree. Curtains will provide you with string and a sheet. Cut the sheet into rags.

• To cut the sheet up you might need to make a Makeshift knife. You can disassemble the long string from curtains, or find some withered plants from searching undergrowth; then make a spike for the knife.

You must then make a spike for the tip (found under misc. in the crafting menu).

Pick up a rock from outside and smash a locker or two to gain 9 scrap metal or 3 chunk of steel. Use the rock as your improvised hammer to crank out a twisted, metal spike.

Once you have obtained all four components you can then fashion a knife spear. Unfortunately you won't be able to hold all components in your inventory so it is best to leave them in a pile or have each accessible in a square adjacent to you.

This weapon has 16 pierce dmg, and 4 bash. It can make reach attacks (2 range). It also has food cooking 1 and cutting 1.
