9mm rounds are next to useless. If it was a .45 auto government Colt, it would have taken only one shot, and the perp. would have dropped the knife and lay very still immediately.

That’s the theory. Doesn’t always work out that way, even against adversaries not under the influence. That’s why one cop switched to 9mm - so he’d have more rounds on tap:
