Knife Spear Clean

The knife spear clean is a weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Dead Money.

Characteristics
The knife spear clean is a two-handed melee weapon. It is similar in appearance to the regular knife spear, but it does 5 more DAM, has a higher critical hit chance and causes bonus limb damage.

Special attack
It has a special Mauler attack that does normal damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of the normal 35 action points, but adds a chance to knock down opponents (requires a Melee skill of 50).

It is possible to execute Mauler outside of V.A.T.S. (without the required Melee skill of 50 to perform the move) by initiating a power attack (hold attack button) while moving forward.

Durability
The knife spear clean can successfully strike about 1995 times from full condition before breaking.

Crafting
This weapon must be crafted by the player. It cannot be found on enemies or in containers.
 * The workbench recipe is listed as "cosmic knife spear", but the weapon will appear in the player's inventory as "knife spear clean".

Creation requirements

¹ Craftable without a workbench via a dialogue option with Veronica, or with ED-E once the add-on Lonesome Road is installed. ² Note that the 3 cosmic knife cleans must themselves be crafted before using them to create this weapon.

Variants

 * Knife spear
 * Throwing knife spear
 * Throwing spear

Bugs

 * This weapon appears mostly identical to the standard knife spear, notably the knives themselves, which do not appear to be clean. This is caused by the special, "clean" texture for the weapon only being applied to the staff portion of the weapon and not the blade portion.
 * The knife spear clean is marked as a "Player Only" weapon, meaning it cannot be given to companions for use.
