What happens when you miss the knives?
So I totally missed them and kept going. At this point I usually have a pair of scissors or two if I'm lucky enough to find them. Am I screwed? Do I need to start the game over and get the knives?

There are typically a few pairs strewn about the level if you look closely enough. Most times, you'll find a box in a store closet or something, although they may be hiding in drawers or other miscellaneous containers as well.

There is never a point in the game where you cannot progress due to a lack of knives. Worst case, you'll just have to put your stealth skills to the test until you reach the next box.

Cool, thanks. I'll keep a lookout for them. I saw a video of the first box you get in one of the storage closets, I completely missed that. I think partly because I didn't know what I was looking for. But now I know what they look like, I'll be searching for them. Seriously, right now I have two scissors. It's been rough!

Haha, good luck!

You never know what you'll find hidden around ;)

Since the scissors are reusable, you should be fine with one single stabby item. Just don't miss when throwing... ;)

PS: Throwing darts work too.

Thanks! I just got passed the level with the vault. I ended up killing every single robot only with a few pairs of scissors that I found. I looked everywhere and there were no knives. So bizarre. Also, does this game have rumble support? I'm using an Oculus Rift but it just seems odd that no matter what you do, the touch controllers don't vibrate. I just find it strange, like there's a disconnect.

Nice job! The Vault level is a bit odd, but there are actually a few scissors scattered around in the vents if you look close enough ;)

Also, something I didn't realize on my first playthrough, but the crystals in the vault--yes each and every one--can be used as a weapon.

Not sure about the rumble support specifically. I'm also on the Vive myself.

Not only can they be used as weapon, but they are also superior to knives (et al.) because they kill the robots instantly, like a head...stab(?) with knives. You never just wound the guards with them.

Really? I never knew that. Interesting...

I saw those. Now I wish I picked them up. I really wish you can hold 5 knives/sharp objects in addition to key cards or other objects.
