There was this one Imperial Remnant (Star Wars EU) leader who actually had a hidden weapon in the form of edged custom medals that were combined.

A knife requires getting in close. While a sidearm is still a short range weapon, it allows you to keep your enemies farther away. Using a knife means you need to close the distance, which is why it's often a last ditch weapon. Keep in mind that I'm partial to ranged weapons.

You can totally keep this. I'm just noting that sidearms also work well for leaders.
