How Brass Knuckles and Chainsaw stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

A pair of brass knucks that boost Tommy's unarmed damage without changing his animation — the earliest melee upgrade in Vice City. Found in alleys and on dead pedestrians around Vice Beach.

A motorised cutter introduced in the Scarface-style mansion shootout — holds enemies in place and shreds them in seconds. Permanently picked up after the mission and a candidate for Vice City's deadliest melee weapon.
