Thermoblade

The Thermoblade is a tool and an upgrade to the regular Survival Knife. It is crafted by using the Modification Station.

In general, it can be used for harvesting or defense. However, its primary function is that it cooks any edible fish in one swipe.

The Thermoblade does the most damage of all the knives.

If a Bleeder latches onto the player's arm, the player can use the Thermoblade to stab the Bleeder.
