Butch's Toothpick

Butch's Toothpick is a weapon in Fallout 3.

Characteristics
Butch's Toothpick is a modified switchblade. It is owned by Butch DeLoria, a resident of Vault 101.

Later on if you allow Butch to remain alive while escaping Vault 101, the Toothpick can be obtained when you return during the Trouble on the Homefront quest. It is roughly twice as powerful as an ordinary switchblade (before Strength modifiers). It can be repaired using regular switchblades.

Locations

 * The weapon cannot be acquired if you kill Butch on your Escape from Vault 101. It shows up on his corpse as a regular switchblade.
 * The easiest way to get Butch's Toothpick is by reverse pick pocketing a better weapon into his inventory while in Vault 101 during the mission Trouble on the Homefront, thus forcing the toothpick into his inventory for you to take.
 * If Butch is acquired as a follower later on, his Toothpick can usually be taken by swapping items.
 * Other than swapping it from him, the easiest way to get Butch's Toothpick (without making anyone hostile) is simply to pickpocket it from him. Reverse-pickpocket any higher level weapon onto him, which he will equip, thus forcing the Toothpick into his inventory.
 * Another method for getting the switchblade is to wait until Butch shows up at the Muddy Rudder in Rivet City. Start a fight with him and then shoot the knife from his hands. Grab the knife, leave Rivet City and wait 72 hours. After three days, all hostility from Butch should be gone.

Behind the scenes

 * The name "Toothpick" is also the name of a buck knife. It's not just the fact that he uses it to pick his teeth.
