We also use our knees, heads, elbows, and feet as weapons. Were those also primarily shaped by these uses?



It's not entirely unlikely that that could have been an influence. When taking a Muay-Thai knee for example; a slight turn of your hip-joint turns your knee from a relatively soft bludgeoning device into a very effect 'spear'-like weapon. A similar turn of your leg turns the soft front part of your shin into a re-enforced shield for defense, etc.

I'm not saying that per-historic humans had this sort of concept of fighting style; but I am saying that our biology could have have developed favoring effective combat uses on it's evolutionary path; as with any other animal evolution. I don't see why we would be uniquely exempt.
