Talk:Close Quarters Combat Weapon System

Halo 3 Combat Knife
I heard a rumor that Master Chief is to be equipped with a Combat Knife in Halo 3. While I do not believe the rumor, if anyone has any source to this it would be appreciated. Salty 04:19, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Are we sure that the picture shown for the knife is accurate? It doesn't look like a combat knife, as they are usually double-sided and have a symmetrical drop point. The knife shown looks more Covenant in orign, or it could be a jungle machete. The knife also looks the wrong size and proportion to fit in the ODST scabbards. --Bravo Kilo 09:31, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

A Glitch
I heard there is a glitch for you to reove a combat knife from a certain armor piece. I also heard it works exactly like an energy sword. Is this true? Mr.X 01:39, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Normal/Heroid/Legendary Knife
I think one of the images here does not belong. The Halo Normal/Heroic/Legendary knife is more like a machete, and the knife the ODSTs carry is like a pocketknife, with a blade maaaybe 4". I have researched this a lot, I'm actually building one.. 71.30.236.230 18:24, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

It is strange that its curved but i don't think it's big enough to be classified as a machete (judging from the size of the handle compared to the length of the blade.)--Elite Spartan  19:17, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

No, no, you don't get it- there are pictures here of two different knives. One has a large blade, and shaped like a futuristic falchion or machete. The other is very small, and has a symmetrical blade. Only one can be the Combat Knife. 71.30.236.230 00:02, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Theres actually three different combat knives if you count the one on the CQB armor. At the moment we don't know which is the true combat knife.--Elite Spartan  04:08, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

Real Combat Knife
I've made a real version of the difficulty setting knife- with tool steel and cast aluminum. May I include it here? http://www.flickr.com/photos/vrogy/2151885609/ 71.30.236.230 02:02, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Picture
I don't really think that the picture we have should be used since I really don't think it can be considered a combat knife. It's just an image Bungie made for the difficulty images. The image should be of something that has been seen in the Halo universe (ie.- ODST combat knifes, or the CQB combat knife). Opinions? XRoadToDawnX 15:45, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Close quarters combat weapons system
Is this realy necisary? were was this ludicrus name come from? a knife is not a weapon system. its just a weapon. period

I think that the top image, the one that we usually see on the difficulty settings? It's not a Combat Knife at all. It very closely resembles a Machete, and the image should be used for The Machete Article.

The main pic is of a Spartan sword.
EliteSpartan was on the right track. The Spartans had their own swords during the Halo:CE development but where pulled mid-production.
