Overview
The chainsaw is the most violent melee weapon in GTA Vice City, made famous by the mission Treacherous Swine.
Performance
It deals continuous damage while held against a target and kills very quickly. Its reach is short, and Tommy cannot run quickly while using it.
How to get
Colonel Cortez gives Tommy a chainsaw in Treacherous Swine. It later goes on sale at the Screw This hardware store after The Chase, and collecting 20 hidden packages makes one spawn at Tommy's safehouses.
Tips
- In Treacherous Swine, you can use the chainsaw to finish Gonzalez once you catch him.
- Avoid using it against groups of gunmen, since it requires getting very close.
Spawn locations
- For sale at Screw This, Little Havana, after Phnom Penh '86
- Bathroom of Apartment 3C, Ocean Beach
- Ocean View Hotel, Vercetti Estate and Hyman Condo after 20 Hidden Packages
Notes
The Chainsaw found in Apartment 3C, next to a blood-stained bathroom, is a tribute to the infamous chainsaw scene in Scarface.
