FSK-7_Fury_Combat_Knife.jpgFSK-7 Fury Combat Knife
The FSK-7 Fury Combat Knife is more of a light axe than an actual knife. The blade is weighted to increase the power of hacking and slashing enemies.

Unsc_combat_knife.pngUNSC Combat Knife
The UNSC's multi-purpose combat knife has a blade 20 centimetres (7.9 in) long made of high carbon steel, an anti-flash non-reflective titanium carbide coating, edge coated for corrosion and rust resistance and is 43.3 centimetres (1 ft 5.0 in) when sheathed. All UNSC troops are issued a combat knife for field and utility uses, as well as a backup weapon for desperate close combat situations. The weapon is also weighted for throwing.

X-Factors
Explanations:
 * For combat experiance I gave the advantage to The Rookie as he had to face off against various species of enemies plus he had the advantage of fighting in a full blown war compared to Echo fighting during a Cold War scenario.
 * The advantage for Training was given to Echo as she was trained as an Elite soldier compared to The Rookie's UNSC training which was more for fighting rebels than proper organised armies gave the advantage to Echo.
 * Echo has been known to be an elite stealth operative as she has infiltrated enemy lines during the cold war between the ISA and Helghast while the Rookie has also infiltrated behind enemy lines he doesn't have the ability of countering other stealth operatives like Echo does so in the end advantage goes to Echo.
 * For leadership Echo only shown leadership skills were shown  leading Helghast troops as she led a squad to attack and capture an abandoned ISA crusier while The Rookie hasn't lead any sqauds during combat which is why the advantage obviously went to Echo.
 * For Teamwork Echo has mainly worked on her own during her years of service and has only rarely worked alongside someone compared to The Rookie who has experiance working alongside other ODST is what I believe gives him the advantage.
 * Both The Rookie and Echo were trained to be accurate with their weapons the difference comes between how Echo has been known to be more of an expert marksman and her main weapon of choice is the sniper rifle which gave her the slight advantage.

Personal Opinion
Between Echo and The Rookie the weapons advantage I believe are dead even between the two forces and the soldiers are possibly evenly matched as well so in the end it will come down between the two operatives in the end and I believe that Echo's superior tactics of stealth might win her the battle but The Rookie is more experianced so he won't be easy to sneak up on but I personally give my edge to Echo.

The Scenario
Echo has just managed to reach her extraction point after infiltrating New Mombasa and stolen data of the UNSC the extraction point has 4 Helghast Assault Troopers guarding the area meanwhile The Rookie along with 4 other ODST have been ordered to chase and take down Echo before she could escape with the area and back to Vekta.
