NRS-2. Russian knife that fires a bullet.

The Russian military does come up with great ideas. There's the ballistic knife which fires the blade. That right there is a great idea since nobody would be expecting that. There's that shovel which the shovel part is sharpened on all sides. That's great for a fighting weapon and it also can be thrown. Then there's this knife which is a great survival knife.

The ballistic knife isn't too practical, though. The shovel, yes, but why the hell would you be throwing your weapon away like that?

Why have a knife that holds a bullet when you can have knife affixed to gun that holds more bullets?

If something happens to your gun where you have to use a knife on someone. Wouldn't you want a weapon that the person you're fighting has no idea what's going to happen next? It has a great element of surprise to it. You can use it like a regular knife and if you have to. You can fire the blade to safe your life.

If you're on the ground for a last chance effort to safe our life you can throw it at them. If the person has a gun you can throw it at them and while it's in them you can attack them. There's also the chance that it killed them.

It's the same as above. Something like this would give you a lot more options to work with. If you're stuck using this knife you have the ability to fire a bullet at a short range for hunting or killing. The other thing is that it's suppressed. So you can fire it to kill someone and take their weapon.

You've also thrown your only weapon away and are at a massive disadvantage if it misses or if they keep coming, because 1 shot kills like that don't happen too often in real life.

Or, you could have your own weapon, which the military tend to give people. Hunting? Who the fuck would use this for hunting? There are thousands of better things to use for hunting than this.

If you know you have no other options left you can fire the blade at the person trying to kill you. Yes for more than one target it would be pointless. But for a single target it's a great option to have. Like I said something like this gives you a lot more options than a normal knife.

Hunting as in for survival. If you end up getting into a situation where you have to survive by yourself until pick up or you are looking for your own guys. Wouldn't you want something that gives you more options for that? Your rifle or pistol may not have a suppressor on it and even if one does you may not want to waste the ammo. With this knife it's built in and you can use it for small game. It's a knife that expends your options which is great. The more options you have the better.

You can throw knives too, but it's pretty much never done by anyone with training because it's a dumb, extremely risky move with little trade off. They don't drop dead, they're still alive and are going to try to kill you, and now you lack a weapon. I never even mentioned fighting multiple targets.

Since when have Humans required suppressors for hunting? What are spears? You can trap small game with easily made traps that I'm pretty sure are trained for those that are likely to end up in such situations.
