Hi Hayden, On the contrary several of the Jedi Knight games feature hand to hand combat as well as light sabers, blasters, and the usual weaponry you would expect. In fact at the beginning of Jedi Knight I Kyle isn't even armed at the beginning of the game. You get your first weapon by grabbing the blaster from behind the bar, and then picking off the Rodian with the blastech pistol in the ceiling fan. Of course, you might have to use some hand to hand combat, smack a few heads in the Cantina, before getting that first blaster. Other times it comes in handy are the areas that are underwater were a blaster or light saber won't work.
As for Jedi Knight Mysteries of the Sith I don't ever recall having a real need for fists, but the feature was most certainly available. It always just seamed I could use force powers to get what needed to be done without resorting to lesser means like beating up the enemy. I could usually force blind or stun the enemy and make a quick escape instead of sticking around fighting hand to hand with them. That especially holds true for the area with the prison block level where Mara is disarmed and locked in a jail cell below Ka'pa the Hut's palice. Once you escape the jail cell you have one big ugly rancor to fight and like Luke's encounter with the rancor she isn't armed when she does it. Best tactic there is to blind it, distract it, or whatever you can with the force and make good your escape and find Mara's saber elsewhere in the palice. If you want to settle the score with the rancor you can always go back and finish the job, but using fists definitely isn't going to work there. Lol!
