Fallout – What weapons does the Cowboy perk affect

fallout-new-vegas

The Cowboy perk is described as "You do 25% more damage when using any revolver, lever-action firearm, dynamite, knife, or hatchet, pard'ner."

I'm curious as to what specific weapons are considered to be Revolvers and Knives for the purposes of this perk. Specifically, do any Energy Weapons qualify? Is the Shishkebab considered a knife? (link goes to the FO3 version at the moment). Similarly, is That Gun considered to be a Revolver?
