I'm totally unsure on this one, but I'll throw in this guess. "The Paradise Syndrome." I seem to be able to make this fit the clues, as follows.
1. The Enterprise is broken down and needs repairs because Spock overworked her.
2. Kirk is the main man and has lost his memory, hence he is not caring about much.
3. Spock is the second man and he is preoccupied studying language symbols.
4. The third man is Salish who is distraught over losing his job and his woman.
5. McCoy is the fourth man and is concerned with Kirk and Spock always.
6. Kirk is introduced to Miramannee, whom he marries.

Correct on all except #4: The distraught third man exclaims, "My bairns. My poor bairns."
Great job, you are up, @Steven P Bastien.

Thank you Henoch. Those were good clues which provide a perspective that makes it hard to identify the episode.
This next episode is randomly selected, but it excludes "The Cloud Minders". Random selection at first picked that one, but I had personally selected that last time, and I don't want to repeat it so soon.
Clue #1 For a sci-fi show, Star Trek sure does feature a lot of episodes with the use of primitive weapons. Usually, such episodes will also feature the use of futuristic weapons. In this episode no futuristic weapon is actually fired and a primitive weapon is used once, quite effectively. Everyone knows mechanical devices can be a force or strength multiplier.

Good thought Henoch, but remember that advanced weapons were fired in "Arena". Kirk shot the "jewel" grenade launcher into the high ground, and a redshirt got vaporized by a Gorn weapon etc. Also, to provide a further hint, the diamond is projected by gunpowder, which, while ancient enough, is a chemical energy based force/strength multiplier and not one providing mechanical advantage to multiply the wielder's force/strength.
Clue # 2 Aside from the simple weapon that is actually used, another primitive weapon is featured, but only used to threaten someone. Really, both items I call weapons were made to be tools, but a machete is a tool when you cut plants/vegetation with it, and it is a weapon when you use it to defend or attack against animals/people.
No, not "The Savage Curtain". There are a few problems in matching the clues. First, Lincoln is also killed by a spear to the back, but the first clue says that a primitive weapon is used only once. Also, in the second clue, it is mentioned that both "weapons" were really made as tools, while in "The Savage Curtain" various primitive weapons are clearly fashioned for the purpose of being deadly weapons.
Clue # 3 In this episode, people are incapacitated by various means. There is the aforementioned mechanical tool used as a primitive weapon, and it goes without saying that some old fashioned hand-to-hand techniques are used sporadically to take out a couple of more people. Then there is another person who is incapacitated by yet another means. A very sneaky and snake-like method is used - still an old method, but injected into this future setting. There are other methods too which go beyond even these, and yet are fundamentally non-futuristic.
Basically, we end up with several methods being used to incapacitate many people without the need of phasers, disruptors, lasers, photon torpedoes or other sci-fi gadgetry. A story set in our times or even well into the past could use all of these methods without being unrealistic.

Space Seed is correct. There is also the hypo injection method used to knock out the guy guarding kirk in the pressure chamber. Of course you Henoch would be very familiar with that method which was later used against you while you inhabited Spock's body.
Your turn Henoch.
By the way, the "force/strength multiplier" was an attempt to reference Khan's claim to be 5 times stronger than Kirk. Perhaps the mechanical advantage of a club is at least 5 giving Kirk an equal standing in the fight.

In "Conscience of the King", Leighton says, "Then it will be a ghost Martha and I receive in our home tonight. I invited the entire company to a cocktail party. I have to be sure.".
Initially Kirk declines going to the party, but later he decides to go and meet Karidian the elder. He ends up meeting Karidian the younger and she turns out to be scarier than any ghost could be.

@Steven P Bastien got the correct Shakespeare Play in one with Hamlet's, The Conscience of the King. Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble; not Macbeth and not Catspaw.
Clue #1 The loss of a dozen seems no cause for concern.
