The Sticky Bomb Mod is a weapon mod featured in Dead Island, Ryder White's Campaign and Dead Island: Riptide. It causes your melee weapon to explode a few seconds after being thrown, causing massive damage. The explosion is identical to that of a Deo-Bomb, with a burning effect but with just under half the blast radius. The blast always deals a fixed 5000 damage in addition to the normal damage dealt by the weapon, giving high-level Heroes a use for Knife variants such as the Diving Knife which do not level past 24.
The Sticky Bomb Mod has no effect on a weapon when it is swung normally rather than thrown, and said weapon can be used normally with no penalty. When thrown into an enemy, the weapon will disappear immediately, making it impossible to recover. However, Logan's Boomerang skill will allow him to recover the knife without removing the explosive from the enemy, effectively duplicating the weapon.
In Dead Island: Riptide, whilst the code for the knife to explode is there, this mod will instead cause the knife to start beeping after being thrown. Occasionally this beeping will form old cowboy trail tunes such as "Red River Valley" and "Oh, Susana" in ringtone form. This may be referring to the fact that Logan, the hero known for his thrown weapon skills, is from Texas, the state most well known for cattle-herding, rodeos, and most anything else that can be related to cowboys.
