Take Down Krauser With Just Your Knife

 

If you’ve played through the game, you’ll have surely noticed that Jack Krauser, Leon’s former-ally-turned-foe, is pretty darn handy with a knife. He’s an agent experienced with all manner of firearms and other weapons, but the simple knife seems to be his favorite.

The game’s trying to tell you something here. In the later stages of the game, you’ll engage in a super-dramatic boss battle with Krauser. When he breaks out his trump card, that absurd, mutated, blade-like extend-o-claw of his, you wouldn’t think of falling back on your own knife, but you’d be surprised how very effective it is on him, staggering him and dealing huge damage. It’s tough to pull off, with his range and the cramped area on top of the tower working against you, but you’ll put him down in seconds this way.
