How Brass Knuckles and Molotov Cocktail 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 petrol-filled bottle that bursts into a lingering pool of fire — perfect for area denial and torching parked vehicles. Stocked at the lower-end Ammu-Nation and dropped during several Cuban missions.
