I think a sufficient predator attack should have a random chance of making the player drop the knives  or any held tool for that matter,  if they have it equiped (selected/in-use).

Say like a Crabsnake attack having a 25% chance of causing a knife drop from the sudden damage ii inflicts during the players struggle not to get eaten, if it successfully attacks the player. A Shocker might have a higher chance, say 40%, because of electric pulses stunning the player temporarely. A   Stalker or   Bone Shark  could have something like a 5% or less drop rate due to the player likely gripping the blade a lot harder but being hurt while in the process of picking something up could be seen as a surprise attack.
