Occam's Razor

Occam's Razor is a unique combat knife in Fallout 3.

Characteristics
Occam's Razor is only stronger than the combat knife in raw damage by 3 points, so it may not be much more useful than a normal combat knife. It is inferior when compared to Stabhappy.

Durability
Occam's Razor can successfully strike about 1200 times from full condition before breaking.

Variants

 * Combat knife
 * Stabhappy - Stabhappy shares all of its stats with Occam's Razor, but has two principle differences. Firstly, the raider that holds it respawns, allowing multiple copies to be obtained. Secondly, it deals an additional 50% damage to limbs.
 * Trench knife - The trench knife's stats are identical to the regular combat knife. The only difference is a unique "knuckle-duster" skin.
 * Sim version combat knife - A sim-only version of the weapon which differs only in health (essentially non-degrading).
 * Sim version trench knife - A sim-only version of the weapon which differs only in health (essentially non-degrading).

Locations
Found on Commander Jabsco at the Talon Company base in Fort Bannister.

Behind the scenes

 * It refers to the scientific principle of the same name.

Bugs

 * If the player kills Jabsco without shooting him, such as by hacking the turrets or reverse-pickpocketing a grenade, Occam's Razor won't appear in his inventory. This can be fixed by shooting his corpse.
 * In the Broken Steel event in which the Brotherhood raids Fort Bannister, on certain occasions Occam's Razor will not be found on Jabsco or in the containers in the room that Jabsco is found in. This is due to a Brotherhood member picking the weapon up.
