The Knifetrail is an unmarked location in Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds. It is briefly mentioned by the White Teeth Chieftain during his conversation with Aloy.
History[]
The White Teeth and its werak candidates, came down from Ban-Ur for their initiation test: to survive for four days and four nights upon the glaciers in the Knifetrail.
While in Keener's Rock, Aloy talks to the Chieftain. The Chieftain explains that they are waiting for the last two hunters, who have yet to return from the ordeal. Aloy, disgusted by the uncaring and brutal nature of the werak, travels to the glacier to rescue the hunters.
Thanks to Aloy's help, Mailen, one of the hunters, returns to Keener's Rock. The other, Ikrie, travels to the Snowchants Hunting Grounds.
