Throwing knife

Throwing knives (first available at Rank 4) are knives that Altaïr can throw at his enemies, taking them out from a distance. Unless the enemy is a Templar or a boss character, the knives generally kill with one hit. When Altaïr runs out of knives, he can get more by either pickpocketing them from thugs (earns 5 knives), by killing thugs in a fistfight (only 1 knife, zero if a blade is used), or by returning to either an Assassins Bureau or Masyaf (maximizes knife count).

The maximum amount of knives Altaïr can hold increases at certain ranks. After first becoming available at rank 4, at which point the knife capacity is 5, Altaïr gets extra Knife Belts at ranks 7 and 10, increasing the capacity to 10 and 15 (respectively).

Throwing knives are returning in Assassin's Creed II, but this time, they won't kill with one hit (due to the introduction of the Hidden Gun).
