+ | A '''large dagger''' is a [[attack types|edge]] [[weapon]] that is essentially larger than a knife but smaller than a [[short sword]]. Compared to the standard short sword, large daggers have no "flat" attack and a significantly less lethal "slash" attack, but gain a much more vicious "stab" attack with 1/10 the contact area of a sword point. This makes large daggers particularly effective against [[armor]]ed opponents: an iron dagger has a fair chance to pierce even [[steel]] armor, and the resulting internal injuries can be debilitating and deadly. | ||

+ | Large daggers use and train the [[knife user]] skill, and are common weapons for [[kobold]] and [[goblin]] thieves. As foreign weapons dwarves cannot [[forge]] large daggers, limiting supply to whatever low-[[quality]] specimens can be scavenged from ambushers. All dwarves are able to equip large daggers. | ||

+ | All [[Adventure mode]] characters start with a large dagger, usually made of copper. Even [[elf|elven]] adventurers will receive a metal dagger. | ||
