u r 6 ft away, with knife, I tell u to drop it,
and you don't do so INSTANTLY, you get 7 hits per second of the meanest handgun ammo ever assembled. Some people are just STUPID about such things. Nobody's going to give a crap about another dead dumbass.

If someone with a knife is 6 ft away, and I have a firearm handy, I won't waste time telling them to drop it, I'll just empty the magazine into them very rapidly with some of the meanest commercial handgun ammo ever assembled by an modern ammunition manufacturer.

If he's 6 ft away, you won't even get the word 'drop' out of your mouth before he's on you.
