Melee Weapons

Melee weapons are close combat weapons. These weapons include combat knives, cleavers, hammers, screwdrivers, hatchets, shurikens, and frying pans. Keep in mind some are better than others, as they have a greater length, meaning they can strike from farther distances (Frying Pans, hammers, screwdrivers, and hatchets), some can be better, as they are larger, meaning they are better for shielding bullets (cleavers, hatchets, and frying pans), and some are worse as they are thinner (hammers, screwdrivers, and combat knives) and some are shorter than others (combat knives and shurikens). The shuriken is considered to be a special weapon, as all melees, munitions, and guns break when thrown, but the shuriken has a 50-50 chance to actually break when thrown. These melees can cut through bullets, but unlike munitions, don't break when struck by a bullet. (unless you are playing Hardcore Mode)
