Where to find Silver Knife

Not generated in the world. It is crafted, or found inside a dungeon or ruin.

Silver Knife is in the One-Handed Weapons category in Valheim, and every number on this page is read straight from the game files for the current build. That includes the ones the in-game tooltip shows you and the ones it never does: reach, swing arc, how many hits the combo runs to and what the final one multiplies by. Quality 1-4

Silver Knife FAQ

How do you get Silver Knife in Valheim?

This item is not crafted. It is gathered, dropped or found in the world.

What are the stats of Silver Knife in Valheim?

They are listed above, at every quality level Silver Knife reaches. Some of those figures come from Valheim's own item tooltip; the rest — reach, swing arc, combo length, what the secondary attack multiplies — are read from the game files, because the tooltip never shows them.

How much stamina does Silver Knife use per swing?

A swing of Silver Knife costs 10 stamina, with a reach of 1.8 m. Stamina is what actually decides a fight in Valheim rather than raw damage: your food sets the pool, and a weapon that costs less per swing keeps you attacking where a heavier one leaves you standing still waiting to recover.

How much damage does Silver Knife block?

Silver Knife blocks 2, and a parry taken on the right frame multiplies that by 4. Both numbers are then scaled by your Blocking skill, so what is listed here is the floor rather than the ceiling.

How much durability does Silver Knife have?

Silver Knife has 200–350 durability, and can be repaired for free at a crafting station that covers it — repairing costs nothing but the trip, so there is never a reason to carry a worn one home.

Is Silver Knife worth upgrading in Valheim?

It upgrades to quality 4, and the table above lists every level with its own numbers and the exact materials that level costs, so you can see what the next step actually buys before you spend on it.
