Throwing Knife (Fallout: New Vegas)

The throwing knife is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The deadly weapon of choice for assassins. A silent and cunning weapon. They are small, light weight, quick, and quiet. They are about seven inches in length and made of light weight alloy with a wrapped handle.

Since they lack the damage of hatchets and spears, it's recommended to use these with any poison.

Locations

 * Crimson Caravan Company - Blake occasionally sells them.
 * Goodsprings general store, Goodsprings - Chet occasionally sells one or two.
 * Mick & Ralph's, Freeside - Mick offers 15 for sale once you have unlocked his "secret inventory" by passing a Speech check of 30.
 * Quartermaster Bardon in the Hoover Dam offices - On very rare occasions they can be purchased here.

Bugs

 * When you take off a limb with a throwing knife, a semi-glowing version appears afterwards that is not able to be picked up called 'projectile throwing knife', and when shot, it explodes.
 * Sometimes the throwing knife may explode for unknown reasons when hitting a dead enemy's leg.
