Somehow I doubt they'd want their robots getting that close to a human. We may not be as fast, but there are many ways to hold an assailant armed only with a knife at bay. Why risk having a human destroy/damage the robot in close combat? I think that bullets will still be the mode du jour, unless they come up with some super-efficient energy thingy.
What's more frightening is the prospect of a vision system that becomes super-efficient at directing shots at a human target...one shot, one kill. Not a bad ratio, and I'm sure they wouldn't run out of bullets. They could still have knives as backup just in case;-)
