How Brass Knuckles and Grenade stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

A pair of brass knucks that turn CJ's unarmed punches into bone-breaking hits without changing his animation. The earliest melee upgrade in San Andreas — find them in alleys, on dead pedestrians, or at hidden pickups across Los Santos.

A timed fragmentation grenade with a throw arc that scales with how long the button is held. The simplest answer to gang clusters, parked enemy vehicles, and chasing cop cars.
