Overview

Blackfuse Company Utility Knife

Game iconBlackfuse Company Utility Knife is an epic one-handed dagger from the Warlords of Draenor expansion (patch 6.2). It is a short, industrial-style working blade tied to the Blackfuse engineering cartel: dark steel, a rough hilt, and the signature greenish fel-fire glow running along the edge. The model belongs to the family of "hellfire" daggers from the Hellfire Citadel raid and is recognizable by its trademark silhouette.

The dagger is built for characters whose primary stat is Agility — rogues and melee-style hunters — and it also suits looks that call for a compact off-hand blade in the left hand. The base stats are irrelevant here: the item has long been outdated for combat and is collected purely for its appearance.

The item binds when picked up, so it cannot be traded between characters — but the appearance collection in the modern game is shared account-wide, and an unlocked appearance becomes available to all your characters of the matching weapon type.

Source

The dagger drops in the Hellfire Citadel raid — the final raid of Warlords of Draenor, located in the heart of Tanaan Jungle on Draenor.

  • The drop source is the raid's first encounter, "Assault on Hellfire Citadel." The defense is led by Siegemaster Mar'tak, and the knife drops from the spoils of this clash.
  • The dagger's appearance is identical across all difficulties — Raid Finder, Normal, Heroic, and Mythic. Only the item level differs, which doesn't matter for transmog.
  • The encounter does not lock attempts per character: you can clear the raid every week until the appearance drops.
  • The drop chance for this specific dagger is low — it is one item among the encounter's overall loot table. Plan for several weeks of farming.

How to reach the raid:

  • The entrance is in Tanaan Jungle, in the center of the zone, roughly at the coordinates /way Tanaan Jungle 45.6 53.5 — you can't miss the massive demonic gates.
  • If Tanaan Jungle is already unlocked through the Shipyard garrison chain, teleport to your faction's capital in the jungle and fly to the entrance.
  • If the jungle is not yet unlocked, you can reach the zone on foot through the northern pass from Talador near the coordinates /way Talador 74.5 8.

Who It Suits Visually

  • It harmonizes with fel-fire gear — the blade's green glow echoes the tier 18 plate and mail from Hellfire Citadel.
  • It pairs with dark leather and mail Draenor sets that have metallic plating — the knife looks like a piece of engineering equipment.
  • It looks great alongside another short blade of the felfire family, for example the Game iconFang of the Pit — two kindred hilts in both hands.
  • It contrasts with bright "holy" and frost-themed looks — the green fel will be a debatable but eye-catching accent here.
  • It fits concepts of an orc engineer, a melee warlock, and any builds themed around the Blackfuse cartel.

Tips

1

The raid clears solo in a few minutes on any class level 70 and above — gear from The War Within makes the fights trivial.

2

"Assault on Hellfire Citadel" is a fight with siege machines and waves of added enemies; in solo mode, simply destroy the vehicles and reinforcements until the fight ends.

3

In a single run you also collect the entire loot table of the first encounter — it makes sense to note the inv_knife_1h_draenorhonors2_c_01Wicked Bonecarver's Knife as an additional target right away.

4

Difficulty doesn't matter for transmog — take Raid Finder mode, it's the fastest and requires no group.

5

You can clear the raid once a week on each character; if you want more attempts, run the Citadel on several different characters.

6

Alongside the dagger, the raid drops tier 18 armor sets and rare weapon appearances — knock out the achievements for the "Hellfire Raider" meta-achievement at the same time for a ground mount.

7

A class with self-healing and mobility — death knight, paladin, demon hunter — runs the clear most smoothly, though almost any character works at this difficulty.
