Which is a good idea but only with reduced damage.

Roachor:
Muscle propelled projectile vs explosive propelled projectile is why spear for instance is hth and can be thrown while a gun isn't. Knives do damage based on kinetic energy generated by human muscles, grenades are explosives.
How much time it takes irl to throw something is irrelevant, this is a combat system not a simulator. That being said people can throw knives very quickly.
Hth could use a short range variant because we all know how frustrating chasing some asshole for 6 seconds till he runs out can be, range is everything in this game. Being able to switch to a knife to cripple a runner would be perfect.
I agree about being able to stab with them, kind of stupid that you can't when the spear already has that mechanic.
As for stalker, there are too many categories that overlap and serve no purpose since we have such limited amounts of sp. Melee/unarmed could be merged and it would only change having to chose which weapon to use endgame. Who cares if it has the word throw in the name, as I said before spears are melee weapons that you throw. A throwing knife is just a smaller version of the same kind of weapon.

Uftak:
Eh, I really like this suggestion tbh, it would improve melee fightin' and make it different than unarmed.

But sadly I must say that devs won't realise this (and many others) suggestion. Maybe because they are afraid of changes-or maybe cus there would be lot of players who won't like it, got no idea.

Anyway, addin' melee mode to t kinves could be REALLY nice thing.. yes.. I know.. I've already said it

This is the only way this idea should be taking into consideration.
I don't want to raise my throwing skill to throw nothing...

all it would change is how perks interact with the weapons equipped, throwing skill would still determine accuracy.
