Primal Knife

 Resident Evil 4 Remake _ Primal Knife

The Primal Knife is a unique blade that offers infinite durability when set to specific conditions. It's more powerful than the standard knife and allows you to evade enemy grabs multiple times. This makes it particularly useful for "Minimalist" runs and for tackling higher difficulty levels.

Chicago Sweeper

 Chicago Sweeper

The Chicago Sweeper is actually a submachine gun that provides infinite ammo under certain conditions. It's a crucial item if you're aiming to achieve an S+ rank on Professional difficulty. Be sure to acquire it for your high-ranked runs.

Handcannon

Handcannon

The Handcannon is another submachine gun, which offers unlimited ammo when fully upgraded to its limited edition. It's capable of firing potent Magnum rounds without any limitations. Once you obtain it, consider upgrading it to the limited edition using special modification tickets.
