Butcher Knife is a Weapon in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered.

 

Giant butcher knife wielded by the Undead man-eating cook lurking in the Depths. More of a tool for subduing and preparing live catches than an actual weapon. Those who have faced this deadly blade have a deeper sense of how helpless prey must feel."

How to Get / Where to Find the Butcher Knife

Notes:

  • Give to Frampt to receive 50 souls.
  • Upgrade cost: 200 Souls
  • Special: This weapon will heal 5 HP with each successful hit.
  • Same R1 moveset as battle axe, but differing R2 moveset; R2 one handed causes player to run forward and perform an overhead attack, R2 2-handed causes player to grab the other end of the weapon and smash it into the ground from overhead position.
  • Considered to be the best strength weapon by some because of it's damage output, reach and moveset.

      First playthrough, had no humanities by the time I got to the swamp bonfire. Never saw Maneater Mildred. Killed Quelaag. Looked at wiki after that since I've "finished" this area and see if I missed anything. Now I can never find her and get this weapon. FUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

        this weapon is truly amazing. insane damage and scaling with strength, huge range, the heal is tiny but with it's stunlocking capabilities and relatively small stamina use it adds up. the only downsides are the heavy attacks, specially the 2h one. the 1h one is good if you have the spacing down, but the 2h one is too awfully slow and short ranged to be of any use, a shame considering how long ranged of an axe this is. a beast of a weapon, nonetheless. easily one of the best axes, and one of the best strength only weapons in game.

          Kind of a dex and strength build. I’m thinking of making it a fire or lightning weapon instead due to scaling

            This is an excellent weapon for going for a STR build before getting up to the higher-tier ultra weapons. Unless you really like enchantments, I would recommend just straight upgrading this to +15 if you plan to keep it for STR scaling. The scaling is excellent, and the +5 HP per hit, while small, adds up when you're chopping down them mob enemies. 9/10 weapon.
