Can you hold one knife in each hand when you melee attack?

Pretty much just what the title says, I know they're adding improvements to melee combat for the beta so even if it isn't presents now maybe it will be in the future?

Unfortunately, nothing was announced about 2 hand use. It would certainly be a nice extension to do "double damage". When we see how short the range is, a meaningful idea, in contrast to the risk of range.

I hope if the devs introduce something with 2 hand use, that it should also be possible to have an active and passive hand. (for example: a lamp on the left and a one-handed weapon on the right).

Why do you want to hold knives in both hands (it's useless)? It only makes sense in games like CoD, but in realistic games like DayZ it's pretty bad idea.

what if:

You are in the woods, alone and have a gun ... but no more ammo .... you hear the howling of the wolves ... you have that softskill on your ideal. Your only advantage is 2 steak knives.
