Dagger, Stone

A very basic dagger and the most ancient of all weapons, this is nothing more than a large chunk of stone, usually flint or obsidian, that is carefully worked with the sharp edges of the broken stone forming the blade and possessing a rounded, thick grip. The grip is often wrapped with leather or sometimes mounted within a large piece of bone or antler. A stone dagger is sharp enough to saw or smash through bone, and extremely brittle, especially when contacting hard surfaces like most armor. However, it takes almost no technology to make and is extremely cheap. Some primitive barbarians still use these, even if only as sacrificial instruments.
