This problem is really weird, for some weapons if I try giving them higher level, their damage lowers

you can fix the damage issues by sleeping until night, or the next morning at a safe house, or going back to the main menu and continuing. I had the same issue and these solutions fixed it for me @signal cloud

oh, I should've clarified. You can still upgrade the weapon and it'll show lower damage. But sleeping or going back to the menu and reloading the save will reset the damage values of the weapons. So that level 13 weapon going to level 15 shows a major reduction in damage.
So you do it. Boom damage does down.
Find a bed and sleep/Reload your game/Die.
Wake up/Load back in/Reload to nearest safehouse.
Check your weapons damage and it should now be even higher than it was.

For some reason sleeping makes the game update the weapons damage numbers. Quick little work around. Thankfully far less egregious than it could've been. I've checked this several times through my playthrough. It shows greatly reduced damage. But if I sleep, die and reload, or go back to the menu and reload. The weapons will update their damage values to reflect what they actually should be doing respectively! marcapprovesanimated

For me if I look at the upgrade preview for the Harran Deluxe Edition knife it has the exact same damage as before... what is the point of upgrading then, does it upgrade in a different way (+ durability?) or is the UI just bugged?

the knife doesn't bug out as the bug is seemingly caused by the damage bonus you get from applying mods to weapons. some reason it seems like the weapn enhancement system isn't accounting for the mod damage bonuses when you do the enhancement. Hence why sleeping or reloading makes the damage numbers refresh properly and account for the damage bonuses after the fact. since knives can't take mods other than charms (which don't alter the damage value the same way mods do) it doesn't bug the damage out.
Granted thats my personal experience. Only bugs out the damage for me on weapons I put mods on. Doesn't affect weapons I have no mods on. cat_Smiel

Okay but if the knife has no mods on it yet, it's just blank fresh and out of the box lvl 1 and I check out what the benefit of spending the resources for upgrading it is... the preview is completely identical to the current stats. Same damage number, same +50% backstab modifier... it doesn't tell me at all what the point of upgrading a knife is, if there even is one.
