... are you being a NK hipster? "I was knifing before they hit it big. I only use free range, organic knives."
When I get knifed I feel the same way as when I get shotgunned: cheated out of a fight. I run assault dropsuits primarily and even in a squad a cloaked scout can BANZAI! stab me and run before a squadmate can cover my ass. It feels too much like an instagib. No time to react and utilize my dropsuits' abilities.
I sometimes hope that Legion doesn't have melee weapons. They feel very antiquated in Dust 514.
My advice to you, playa...

Forge guns lack the precision of a point-blank unavoidable shotgun blast to the head or knife to the back. I can zig-zag a bit and avoid a forgegunner.
I haven't died to an RE in months. Typically they are strapped to the objective. Throw a flux, watch them pop, hack the point. I WISH I could throw a flux and pop a scout. Somehow they would dodge it so there goes that idea.
Are you really going to bring up road kill deaths? LAVs make a lot of noise driving around at full speed. Don't get out in the open, listen for their incredibly load engine sounds, and you will die from a LAV once every thousand deaths.
Warbarge strikes aren't able to be dodged. You got me there, but at least someone earned a warbarge strike All you have to do to be a scout with knives is invest a thousand SP.

Fun for you, very unfun for hundreds of other players. That ratio is off. Just because a certain playstyle is fun for one group of players that doesn't justify it's existence. See: assault dropships.

Let's pretend the cloak doesn't exist for a second, a dampened scout can still flank me and never show up on my TACNET. Sure, I could stack three precision damps on my assault dropsuit. My tank would be nonexistent, and there is a good chance I still wouldn't see a Caldari or Gallente scout.
