Craftable Butterfly Knives/Balisongs

I wish for a craftable butterfly knife/balisong to be added into the game.
  • Code wise it could be mostly copied from the already existing switchblade already in the game.
    I've know that at least 1 other server already has this weapon which is Baystation, perhaps it could be copied from Bay code, or at least it's sprites.
In terms of crafting it could go like this:
  • 1. It will be a 2 step crafting process requiring two separate items to crafted and then combined.
    2. The 2 parts will be the blade and the handle.
    3. The handle could require either metal rods or metal or both and some sort of tool should be used.
    4. The blade should require plasteel or any other harder to get material like titanium or gold and some sort of tool should be used.
    5. You will then combine the 2 crafted components into the final knife.
    (6. optional) the knife can be customized (damage and cosmetic) with different looks by using different materials for the blade and handle.

In terms of functionality it could be like this:
  • 1. While the knife is inactive/closed it will be small enough to fit in one of your pockets.
    2. When the knife is open it will will be too large to fit in pockets but can fit into bags.
    3. The damage of the weapon will obviously be very low or even none at all when closed.
    4. When the knife us open it will do its intended damage which I am currently unsure of, but its damage can be based on and balanced off of how difficult its crafting is.
    5. For balancing purposes I support the optional step of changing the amount of damage based on what materials are used in its construction.

there should be like a 60% chance to cut yourself and drop it when you open it

clowns/clumsy people have a 5% chance to lop off their whole arm

Have a 'fast flip' and 'careful flip' setting.,

Fast Flip will let you move the blade out instantly, but as noted above has a chance of cutting yourself depending on who you are.

Careful Flip will more slowly flip the blade (akin to standing up), has no chance of cutting yourself but is slow and you look decidedly uncool.
