In the game, under the weapons list, it names a glass cutter. When/how does Sam first get to use this and in what mission?

I think the first time I used it was in one of the very very last missions, in Africa. I used it on a window to get inside a building.

In the way I played the game, I didn't use the glass cutter at all. But yes, you *can* use it in the Congo level (though I don't see why you would want to, since I finished the level with a 78% stealth rating and didn't get shot once or got lost)

yea, i used it once in africa and it wasnt even nesscesary, but it still looked cool

same here. its more eye candy than practical. the glass looks super pimp when he cuts it.

lol i saw no point in using it. but i used it so i can hang enter the ledge in style instead of taking the opening that was only 2 feet away!

IN the last part of Kinshasa is where it's most useful to get around to Hisham. I like how the glass cutter works though. It's like a compass.
