Butcher Knife

The Butcher Knife in Rust is a specialized tool designed for efficient harvesting of flesh and animal resources. Its sharp blade is ideal for skinning and obtaining maximum yields of meat, animal fat, and hide from carcasses. This knife is a must-have for players looking to gather food and craft materials quickly and effectively in the game.

With its optimized design for carcass processing, the Butcher Knife outperforms other harvesting tools like the Hatchet when it comes to collecting animal parts. However, it's important to note that this knife is not intended for combat, as its damage against other players or creatures is relatively low compared to dedicated weapons.

To use the Butcher Knife, simply equip it and use it on an animal carcass after making a kill. You'll find that it significantly increases the harvesting speed and yield, saving valuable time and effort. Also, keep in mind that keeping your knife repaired will ensure its efficiency and prevent any mid-harvesting hiccups due to tool breakage.

Remember to store this handy tool in your inventory for your hunting and gathering expeditions within the game, enhancing your survival experience by ensuring you never run short of vital in-game resources. The Butcher Knife is truly an essential item for thriving in the unforgiving world of Rust.
