I know you're not familliar with the source material but I'd like to clearify a few things, which I'm sure you'll respect.

This part is simple. That knife will not stop grunt on the basis of his physiology alone. Not to mention the armor or even trying to get close enough to a krogan to be able to use it.
 * Melee weapon edge.

This part is is similar. A shot or two (or five) won't take grunt down. The Shots have to deal with his shields (if he has them for this match) his immense armor, his tough skin, and finally his physiology itself (see here or here). And I don't think you quite understand the stopping power of the claymore. The stopping power is so great that the recoil would break a human's arm (even with in unniverse space magic tech to limit recoil).
 * "but a shotgun's a shotgun, and if Grunt misses, then it's over"

That is all, not trying to be rude or anything. You understand.
