Desirability
While the Vampire's Tooth may feature a better vampiric effect than any other vampiric weapon, it doesn't do all that much damage to start with. It can be good in the early- to mid-game, where there are many living targets with only moderate amounts of HP, but even then one must usually support this dagger with spellcasting. Later on, it is likely to be useless except in the hands of a stabbing specialist.
