📋 About This Mod
Just Better knives! I didn't like the vanilla models of all the knives, so I replaced them :)
Mod Contents:
- Combat Knife, Bowie Knife, Switchblade, Machete, Throwing Knife
Mod Details:
- each model replaced with selected model from Sketchfab (but I'm open to suggestions)
- each knife has working mods (I modified models and textures to create "serrated" versions)
- fixed vanilla bug with missing blood on some knives
=====================
Combat Knife:
- model: taken from "Combat Knife" on Sketchfab (by hamzag32), imported and fine tuned by me
- texture: as above, converted to dds format plus generated texture maps by me
- mods: created "serrated" version, "stealth" version uses basic model instead of serrated
Bowie knife:- model: taken from "Bowie knife" on Sketchfab (by Redpool), imported and fine tuned by me
- texture: as above, converted to dds format plus generated texture maps by me
- mods: there is only one model in vanilla game, so all mods look the same
Switchblade:
- model: taken from "Ellie's Switchblade" on Sketchfab (by Onur), imported and fine tuned by me
- texture: as above, converted to dds format plus generated texture maps by me
- mods: created "serrated" version
- model: taken from "Barcode Machete" on Sketchfab (by Milacetious), imported and fine tuned by me
- texture: as above, converted to dds format plus generated texture maps by me

Throwing Knife:
- model: taken from "Throwing Knife" on Sketchfab (by art0f_joe), imported and fine tuned by me
