Cyberpunk 2077 throwing knives are arguably one of the most overpowered weapons in the game! But which is best? In this video I break down and rank all 9 knives in Cyberpunk 2077, exploring their pros and cons as well as where to acquire them. I hope that it helps you decide which ones are best for you in your next knife build playthrough! This list is of course my opinion, and I’m more than happy to hear how everybody elses differ from mine.

  1. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Tantos have some sort of area damage where then also hit targets within a few meters of the main one? I may not be remembering that correctly.

  2. So what happen if i hit someone with Contagion and right after i stab him with Stinger? If i do this before the first Contagion target transfer i Will transfer bleed instead of poison?

  3. Great video as always. I know you've already got a ton of suggestions for future videos, but how about hybrid builds? Like Body/Reflex, Int/Tech, Cool/Reflex, etc. I'm currently on 20 Int/20 Cool, so good timing on the video, as I'll be using knives for sure.

  4. 1 thing you didn't mention is that the standard knife has a 300% headshot multiplier. All other knifes only have 250 or lower. If you go for a stealth 1 shot build the normal knife is imo the best.

    Edit: while you can go the poison route an 1 shot everything with it, the enemies will be alerted since it takes some time until they die from poison.

  5. I think the punknife is the most useful for a mixed build that's only carrying one knife for stealth/combo purposes, because the return speed is just too convenient. Further, simply being a Legendary weapon that even a non-crafting build can acquire means you can slot more crit damage booster mods on it, which helps get one-shots from stealth with the crit boosters ninjutsu has access to. The guaranteed poison perk from the ninjutsu skill also means that there's not much benefit to neurotoxin knives if you're high Cool, and if you're not one-shotting enemies, you can land a second knife in the time they're staggering from your first even if Juggler didn't trigger.

  6. Ran a psychotic Gordon Ramsay build with 3 chefs knives, tox/incendiary grenades and krenzikov. I actively have to resist getting knives in other playthroughs now.

  7. Let's goooooooo knife video. It all seemed about right to me. I will say that this build is particularly funny with a full time slow build plus optical Camo in late game. If you want you can go into any of the bases and wipe them before optical Camo runs out, and the enemies will have no idea what happened. You can even just hit everybody once, runs through them all, and then look back upon them as time goes back to normal and they all start to drop dead from poison.

  8. How do you meet with the animals vendor i always end up accidentally killing him when i do the assassation mission in that building!! Also fun fact you can “beat” rhino on that same mission by shooting her and it will count towards the beat on the brat mission!!

  9. Just recently started another knife build and

    The punk knife sold by coach is about 7k near the start of the game

    Tanto seems to have the highest base dmg but low atk speed. So if you have juggler unlocked early, this thing is a menace, the epic version out damages most legendaries
