I have found mine next to bodies out in the snow, hunter blinds, and in major locations (dam, camp office, lookout towers)

look for new one or craft one if you play sandbox

Cant find a new knife and dont know how to craft one.
I am afraid my axe will die soon also.

I’d recommend Bass Pro or Cabela’s, they both have a pretty nice selection.

Barring that, I’d just search everywhere XD Mystery Lake and Milton probably have plenty, or you could always make your own at the forge in DP or FM.

*edit* to craft one you’ll need the heavy hammer, coal, and scrap metal & cloth. You then have to make the journey to a forge, either in Desolation Point of Forlorn Muskeg.

Hard to say as you dont specify what mod of game you play (story, sandbox..) and or where you are (whcih area).

generally only 100% is to craft new one -forge is at Forlong Musket which is area next to Mystery Lake and you visit it in Story mode too.

Otherwise it is bit random(though you can be spoiled by some spots where tools like knife possibly spawn) - but possibly sotrymode has some fixed locations.

I would also highlight you should not let your tools drop to ruined status as you can find and use whetstone for improve its condition.

And as last note - you can well survive without knife or hatchet (or both). Particularly in story mode where you can pretty much ignore lot of activities like harvesting animals or hunt. In sandbox on higher difficulties it is part of challenge too.

I have not the tools to fix or craft a knife

Keep looking around the map, there's probably a few hunting knives hidden around. Otherwise, you'll just have to rely on your hands to harvest carcasses, which isn't that big of a deal in story mode. Also, keep an eye out for whetstones, so you can sharpen your axe before it breaks.

Ok, jsut few ncie spots that comes to my mind - one is broken school in city, barn ebhind grey lady house.

Signal tower on hill behidn her house as well.

Very good place for tools is farm near the city - there is workbench for crafting too. BUT - be careful aas wolves are there.

One note - Grey lady rewards you with some nice items and info as you feed here things for trust - one of first oyu get is whetstone for improve knife condition (if its broken though it cna not be sharpened anymore)

Crafting new knife is out of question for nwo as itn is available in chapter 2 only.

But as noted before - likely you dont need knife at all at first place, just grab supplies from houses and do your quests..

The Bass Pro and Cabela’s part was joke :P just in case you haven’t heard of them before, they’re pretty big outdoorsy stores IRL, or at least in the US.

But it seems like you were able to get help, so hopefully you figured it out! :) Good luck.
