Individual, specific descriptions for melee weapon kills

Currently, if someone gets killed by melee, there is no way of knowing what actually hit him. Knives, Axes, Bayonets, Shovels, Swords, the butt of the weapon… all give confusing, similar image depictions on the kills feed.

Now that we have specific descriptions for if someone gets i.e killed by a Grenade or Explosive Pack, it would be great to have specific descriptions for each of the individual melee weapons when they cause kills (“killed by axe”, “killed by german officers sword”, “killed by x bayonet type”, and so forth).

Myself and others too have suggested this in the past, but since we now have many swords available, having such specific descriptions would also make swords even more fun, knowing that your enemy knew his entire squad got put to the sword, or killed by a shovel… would be very fun!

And, by the way, can you melee-kill someone with the direct impact of a thrown Grenade/Explosive pack? They do break windows…

I remember hitting someone directly with a thrown grenade and getting a hit marker. Then he got downed but I’m not quite sure if it was the grenade impact that downed him. (It was in the middle of a chaotic fight)
