Call of Duty campaigns are known for being tense and gripping, and Modern Warfare 2 is no exception to the rule. The game serves as a sequel to 2019’s beloved Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and has almost all of the fan-favorite characters.

In this guide, we will cover how to get a blade in the countdown in Modern Warfare 2.

How To Get A Blade In Countdown In Modern Warfare 2
In order to complete this mission, you will have to cut the throat of Hassan and his men. This will require you to get your hands on a weapon as soon as possible. There are two possible things players can do. One is to find a box cutter lying around in the room; the other requires players to craft a glass shiv.
Both scenarios require players to get hold of a blade in the countdown. To get your hands on a box cutter, you will have to try to open the orange toolboxes scattered throughout the room for all of them to hold inside a box cutter. You can do this by crafting a tool. Find binding and metal in the office room in front of you and use them to make that tool.
To craft a glass shiv in countdown in Modern Warfare 2, combine binding and glass. While you can find binding in the front room, the best way to get glass is to smash one of the many windows around. Beware that doing so will attract enemies, so stay hidden while you do the crafting.
