The Glass Shard as it appears in both Manhunt games.
The Glass Shard is a Green Class weapon that appears in both Manhunt games, and simply put, it is a piece of broken glass made in the shape of a generic blade, much like the Knife. It is the only weapon in both games that appears in most of the levels.
The Glass Shard is also the only execution weapon that players can create by themselves; If a glass object is destroyed, particularly windows, it leaves behind a Glass Shard for the player to obtain. In Manhunt, it takes 15 light attacks in combo or 8 heavy attacks to knock down a Hunter, similar to other Green Class weapons.

Executions[]
Manhunt[]
- Hasty: Just like the Knife execution, Cash stabs the shard into the right side of the Hunter's neck, causing blood to spurt out. The Hunter then reaches for the wound as he falls to the ground dead.
- Violent: Just like the Knife execution, Cash spins the hunter around and stabs him in the stomach then stabs him three more times in the chest before he pushes the dead Hunter down.
- Gruesome: Just like the Knife execution, Cash stabs the hunter in the lower-right side of his back, then stabs him directly in his right eye and then again in his left eye.
- Against Piggsy: Cash stabs into Piggsy's right shoulder, but Piggsy hits Cash with his arm and runs away, making him drop the weapon. Cash falls down on the ground and after 3 seconds stands back up again. This is shared with the Wooden Spike.
Manhunt 2[]
- Hasty: Daniel/Leo jumps on the Hunter's back and stabs him three times in the stomach, before slicing the shard up from his stomach all the way to his to his throat, causing the Hunter's stomach to rip open.

- Gruesome: Daniel/Leo stabs the Hunter in the buttocks and pulls it up causing him to fall to his knees in agony. He then grabs the hunter's head and pulls it back, before Daniel/Leo then violently stabs the hunter's right eye. He shakes it around a little, takes it out, then slits and twists the Hunter's neck.
- Jumping: Daniel/Leo jumps on the ground and slashes the hunter's on the back of the he as he lands, he then slits the hunter‘s face four times, causing him to scream in agony before slicing his neck, killing him.
Trivia[]
- The in-game name of this item in Manhunt's final level Deliverance is simply Shard and has a slightly different appearance on the HUD, though it functions the same.
- The Glass Shard in Manhunt is unbreakable during hand-to-hand combat. However; in Manhunt 2, this weapon will break after around 5 slashes.
- In Manhunt, the Glass Shard functions identically to the Knife. Alongside sharing the same execution animations, it can also be used to cut ropes. However, unlike its Blue Class equivalent, it can only be used once during executions.
- Like the Knife, the Hasty execution in Manhunt was reused in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
