A double-edged fighting knife with a sharp point.

The dagger is the smallest combat short blade, extremely accurate but surpassed in terms of damage by the short sword. However, the dagger receives the largest stabbing bonus in the game. Backgrounds that lend themselves to a "stealth-and-stab" style of combat (such as brigands and enchanters) may go through the entire game with a dagger, or at least use it as a secondary weapon; a skilled stabber with a good dagger can one-shot sleeping dragons and giants with ease.
