The '''spriggan's knife''' is very useful to [[Stabbing|stabbers]]; more stealth is always appreciated when you need to approach an enemy undetected, and the EV, dexterity, and MR boosts may help you survive if things don't go quite the way you plan. For characters that don't bother with stealth or stabbing the weapon will serve little purpose, as its base damage is too low to be used against high-[[AC]] targets even with the high damage enchantment, and the lack of a brand doesn't help any either.

The spriggan's knife is very useful to stabbers, especially those relying on spells such as Confuse or Confusing Touch instead of Ensorcelled Hibernation. Unfortunately, it isn't much use to other characters unless you find it very early on, since a dagger is a poor base weapon type.
