Flick Knife

The Flick Knife is a D-Quality Melee released in the first version of the game on August 26, 2013. It is free and is the first melee weapon obtained in the game, and the first released Melee. It is commonly associated with the classic and older versions of Cops N Robbers, Knife Only Mode, and the very old map, Knife Factory.

Description
The Flick Knife is obtained and placed in a player account's inventory upon account creation. It is a very simple last resort, movement, and knife mode weapon, however, compared to modern melee weapons, it is very weak, being unable to kill an enemy quick due to its very low power. It is outclassed by every melee weapon, even a base M9 Bayonet.

It is the only available melee at Quality D, and one of the only Quality D weapons, including the M67 and Glock. It is also one of the few weapons that are not upgradable and have no Level. It cannot have enchanted cards, but it works with Armor with stat reforges.

Performance
It deals very low damage (30) often taking 5 hits to kill enemies without armor and lacks one-hit kill headshot potential. It is somewhat fast and has average range.

Unlike other knives, this weapon cannot be upgraded or enchanted, making it very inviable for most gameplay. Armor can boost this weapons stats, but it is recommended to upgrade to another knife instead.

Gameplay Tips
The best thing to do is upgrade to a cheap and reliable knife like the M9 Bayonet, Candycane, or Katana.

In-Game
Use it similar to the M9 Bayonet. Aim for the head to maximize damage and try to stay close to easily take down an enemy.

Armor
Focus on reforging armor to boost Power, Attack Range, Fire Rate, and Movement Speed, to help with dealing damage and to catch up to an enemy and hit them more easily.

Appearance and Origin
A switchblade, also termed flick knife is a type of knife in which a small lever in the handle is pushed to extend a blade. These type of knives are known for being banned in many places worldwide.

In-game, however, it appears to be a tiny, more generic dagger with a hand guard and a wooden handle.

History and Community
The knife has long since been an icon of Cops N Robber's knife mode, even appearing as an icon for knife-only rooms and maps. Because of it's long history, costless obtainability, and nostalgic value, it is often seen in Knife Mode rooms.

The original Flick Knife was darker and had a Counter-Strike like handheld position. It was also much faster, compared to modern knives. It was known for its clone, the Gingerbread Knife, and being commonplace in the multiplayer map Knife Factory.

The M9 Bayonet is likely an upgradable version of the Flick Knife, which is upgradable, costs 2000 and can have much better statistics.

Skins
There are no official skins for the Flick Knife currently.
