Actually, I was *cough*testing*cough* some... modifications in the code -- the knife has a "range" associated with it. Though theoretically you could make it so it sends line-shots, it'd be much easier to change the one line of code defining the "range" of the knife.
The current value is 3. I'm pretty sure it's not just me, but I think the knife range is low (so low I originally thought the knife used some sort of bounding box collision so you have to be colliding with the other player). I can objectively say upping this value to 4 would be a good idea for the next release (unless everyone like the shorter-than-arms-length-range :P )
Oh, and, while I was "testing" the knife range value I found out servers with cheat detection will ban you for "abnormal client behavior" if you knife people from across ac_douze :P
