[[Image:HonorKnife.jpg|thumb|right|Tau Bonding Knife and sheath]]
The '''Bonding Knife''' is a ceremonial knife that serves as part of the [[Tau]] ritual of the '''[[Ta'lissera''']], in which a group is bonded together through ritualistic cutting of their flesh.{{Fn|1b}}
==Overview==
Following their ritual bonding the knife is then carried into battle by the team leader, although it is not designed for use in actual combat, and serves as a reminder of the sacred bond the group shares. Fire Warriors who serve as part of a [[Battlesuit]] team may also undergo the process, although instead of carrying the actual knife into battle the team leader may instead paint a knife design onto his armour.{{Fn|1a}}
