Escape Knife

CookingKnife + Metal

Escape Knife is an escape method in the prison that requires you to be level 3 to craft. This special type of knife allows you to go to the call center and pry open the vent listed there. You will have to push very hard in order to open this, and it takes skill to use. Another strategy is to fork this over to a Cook so they can break themselves out and hopefully do not scam you and keep to their promise of breaking you out too.

They are listed as B tier on the official Escape Tier list due to the ability to also give Metal to a cook so they can easily break themselves out. This is the method that professional players with few resources typically like to use because it is quick, simple, and easy if you practice. The reason it is only B tier is because this item is not very friendly to new players, and they are often confused as to how to use it. You can also get lost if you do not know your way around the vents and even fall out of them, causing the cops to catch you and throw you in solitude as punishment for trying to escape.
