What is a Stiletto Dagger and How were they Used?

Imagine that puppy getting wedged between your armor plates. Under the armpit straight to rhe heart ❤ 🗡

me when i spar with my 5 6 friend :

If I remember right the stiletto was concealed by noble women as a self defence weapon inside their dresses when they felt not so safe.

Stab

This is the exact dagger that FROM based theur stiletto dagger on in the souls games/elden ring. It has the highest crit modifier available at 140% where most other daggers have 130.

Damn fromsoft really made patches irl

Oh hey it's the Misericorde

We makin outta lower erisia with this one 💯💯💯

Pugnale derives from the Latin word pugio (fist) and was a knife similar to a very small gladius used by the Roman soldier like a backup weapon. Instead stiletto derives from the latin word stilus (thin rod). So I totally agree with you, the thin dagger you have shown is a stiletto, while the dagger more similar to a knife should be a pugnale, not a stiletto.

How were they used? The pointy end stuck into the bad person idiots. That's how they were used because when you went handle first it didn't work. The internet is full of idiots

its a hobit sized dirk

Patches?

I'd love to own a dagger like this. looks so elegant.

pfft, it's called a dagger, it's made for dagging, you think we're dumbos

I would probably just go with the Alloyed Tanto, a Stiletto has almost no Light Scaling. It could be compared to the likes of a toothpick, It does absolutely no damage to ABSOLUTELY ANY decently progressed player and there are just much better picks.

bro we know how its used its the deepwoken light starter weapon we not dumb

More common way to say daga in Italian is : daga 😆😆

Always thought this was used Wolverine style where you grip the stiletto cross guard and have the blade in between fingers and use it in a jabbing motion where you use it like you're punching but with a thin needle like blade instead

Pretty lethal in the hands of a hobbit :)

It’s strange that the term Stiletto is used so loosely when it comes to the overall design of the weapon. If we use your description on how it may have been held on the cross guard and having no edges kind of makes me feel like it’s a completely different class of dagger that has 2 edges and a flat blade that could not have been handled in the same way. 🤔

oi mate, where's your knoif loisance?

I found one with +3 to all attributes.

They also slide in so easy, that you really don't need an icepick grip for the power, and would rather prefer the versatility of a standard grip.

Shiv or Shang

This should be a knife for the spy in tf2, the Killetto

So prison shanks have a long tradition behind them.

Dark and Darker dirty rogue rat here.

Approve.

I would prefer if there were time stamps on the video, showing what is being talked about at what minute. The subject is interesting but a full 18 min becomes heavy to watch at least for me

Rogues do be OP

All knives and swords are legal to own in Utah, which is great. If only I had some throwing around money…

11 damage 3 scaling

Its called a thiefs knife. But many people carried them. Reports of clerics carry them have been found.

Im sweden our word for switchblade is stilett.

deepwoken

That's the coolest dagger I've ever seen.

Dark and darker

The new version used in South Africa is a sharpened bicycle spoke , causes internal bleeding, and very difficult to find or heal. Got stabbed in my back years ago. It took 40 hours to stop the damage.

In Polish there is one Word for dagger and it is "sztylet".

To you it's a Stelleto, to me it will always be the pigmy rapier

Love my Tod Cutler stiletto, and great craftsmanship. 👍

Geez funny to think how in america public safety was once a factor.

Its a shank. A shiv, a poker, a banger.

The description at the end pointing out how simple they are really shows them as the ancient shivs that they are.

“Cloak and dagger” and now we see just how well those things can work together.

Yooo, it's the Misericode from Elden Ring

Might be completely off but the entire video I just really wanted to wrap my index finger and middle finger around each "prong" off the guard/grip, and let the blade come out between my index and middle knuckles
