I notice in the show they never have combat knives like Ka-Bars and gerbers. the only knife I ever saw on atlantis is when shepard stabbed the replicator.
What about that knife that O'Neill threw at Eris Boch and Heru'ur? Or that knife that Carter was using in solitudes to chip through the ice and in that other episode to fight that Genghis Khan wannabe?
Did those knives not exist or are you asking why we don't see them used on missions a lot?
EDIT: is this thread only for SGA? If so you should have probably included that in either the title or your first post.
Well Teyla and Ronon seem to have numerous knives so I don't think they really need anymore
On that note, think its safe to mention that Ronan has a FREAKING SWORD!!! Anyways, when Ford went all crazy on the wraith enzyme and escaped, he was wearing a knife on his shoulder.
Company of Thieves
Daniel: You might want to prepare to return fire.
Marks: For the record, Im always prepared. I just have to push this button.
They all have knives, it's part of their vests, and military uniform, this is mainly about how much they're used. Ronan does have way too many knives though, but he doesn't carry them anymore.
Best quotes ever:
O’NEILL: I hope you like Guinness, Sir. I find it a refreshing substitute for food.
Jack O'neill: I hope you diplomatically told him where to shove it.
Teal'c:If you once again try to harm me or one of my companions, my patience with you will expire.
Carter: You know, you blow up one sun and suddenly everyone expects you to walk on water.
Thor:I like the yellow ones
O´Neill:Hey, if you had been listening, you´d know that Nintendos pass through everything.
How often are you likely to use a knife in a gun fight, they arent used as a primary weapon more like a weapon you use after youve used your fallback weapon (pistol). knifes have many pruposes not just for fighting either survival in the wilderness hand to hand fighting repairing equipement (there handy for striping wires)
The knife is the best tool for any soldier, almost everyone will choose a knife over a gun for most situations (apart from pistols at dawn ).
if it wasnt for Carters new plot shield we would be dead
