It's true that all throwns ignore armor but each of them in their own way. Let's look at the base dps, shall we? Kunai is easy, 150 against everything. Despair has 275 against armored Grinners, 92 against light infested and around 183 against everything else. Hikou has 167 against everything except light infested. There it would perform at 500 base dps. So the only question is how much you value ammo efficiency and if you have other means of dispatching armored Grinners / light Infested. Considering all those AoE abilities and powerful charge attacks on heavy melees, I would consider Despair as a best all-around thrown weapon.
