Stone Hunting Knife — Detailed Guide

A stone knife for taking extra hide

The Stone Hunting Knife is a weapon from the Primitive Plus DLC of ARK: Survival Evolved. Its description is short: "Used for gaining extra hide." Survivors use it on creatures to harvest additional Hide from them.

What the knife collects

The ARK Wiki adds two notes about its results. On birds such as the Terror Bird, the Dodo or the Argentavis, the knife will sometimes give nothing but Feathers. The wiki also reports a bug on PC, as of version 1.5, where the knife pulls Hide from invertebrates such as the Pulmonoscorpius or the Meganeura, creatures that would normally give Chitin.

Crafting and repairing the knife

The engram unlocks at level 8 and costs 6 engram points. One knife is made from:

Crafting takes 5 seconds and gives 5 XP. A repair costs 3.5 Stone, 2.5 Fiber and 2 Wood.

Weight and durability

The knife weighs 2 and has a stack size of 1, so every knife takes its own inventory slot. Its durability is 30.
