Overview

Brass Knuckles are a melee weapon in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Slipping them on turns CJ's bare fists into a more punishing close-range weapon while keeping his normal fighting moves. It occupies the hand weapon slot.

Performance

They add weight to every punch and combo, making fistfights noticeably shorter, but they offer no reach advantage over plain fists.

How to get

They can be picked up from weapon pickups around the state.

Tips

  • They pair well with the fighting styles taught at the gyms, since every combo benefits.
  • Switch to a gun as soon as enemies draw firearms.
