Melee weaponry refers to handheld non-ranged weapons used in CQB (Close-Quarters Battle) by combatants. This technology can include items such as knives, hammers and kunai. Most melee weapons are small and lightweight, making them a standard part of infantry equipment loadouts for combatants. However, it is also the case that melee weapons are easily replaceable by almost any item able to be held in one's hands, meaning the melee technology produced by modern companies is specially designed for lethality.
