The Bowie Knife in CS:GO is basically the "look at me" flex of melee weapons. With its comically oversized blade and a curve that screams "pirate cosplay," it’s the knife you pull out when you’d rather style on opponents than win rounds. The swing animation is slow enough to make a sloth yawn, but damn if that exaggerated slash doesn’t feel satisfying. It’s the weapon equivalent of doing a backflip before a free throw—flashy, unnecessary, and guaranteed to make your teammates roll their eyes when you whiff a stab. Forged for clout, not combat.
