How To Pull Out Your Knife In Black Ops 6

Melee weapons used to be an option as a secondary pick in the FPS game, giving players access to a lightweight weapon instead of a standard pistol. Knives are required in Call of Duty Black Ops 6, with all the best Black Ops 6 loadouts taking advantage of this new addition. The only problem is that not everyone knows how to pull out the knife in Black Ops 6, but we’ve got the solution for you.

Black Ops 6 pull out knife

As mentioned earlier, the knife used to be assigned to the secondary slot in previous Call of Duty games, but Black Ops 6 has given the tool its own loadout slot. We should note that you can’t use your knife in the firing range, but it appears to work everywhere else.
Here’s how to pull out the knife in Black Ops 6:

Once the match has begun, hold down the melee button (V on keyboard, B/Circle or RS/R3 on controller).

There are plenty of reasons why you might want to brandish a knife on the battlefield. For starters, melee kills with the knife are instantaneous versus the standard melee attack which requires a minimum of two hits if the opponent is at full health. You also run much faster with a lightweight knife compared to your primary and secondary Black Ops 6 weapons, and that’s particularly powerful when combined with the omnimovement system.
That’s all you need to know to pull out your knife in Black Ops 6. Keep an eye out on our Black Ops 6 camos guide as there may be some challenges that require you to land some knife kills. We also have a Black Ops 6 prestige guide to learn about the changes made to the leveling system in this latest Call of Duty entry.
