The '''Combat Knife''' (UNSC CQCWS) is a [[United Nations Space Command]] infantry-sized knife.
 
==Overview==
The multi-purpose combat knife has a 20 centimeter (8 inches) blade made of high carbon steel coated for corrosion resistance and is 43.3 centimeters (1 foot, 5 inches) sheathed. All UNSC troops are issued with a combat knife for close quarters combat or in situations when ammo is scarce. It is also balanced for throwing. It only appears in the novels and on the backs of [[ODST]]s in [[Halo 2]].
 
==Appearance==
It cannot be used in the games. The only time a combat knife is seen is on the backs of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers and on the chest of the [[C.Q.B]] [[Armor Permutations]], though they are never used in combat.
 
== Trivia ==
