The Dagger [1] also known as a Short Sword, is a weapon wielded by Kain in Blood Omen 2.[2][3][4]
The Dagger was first found on the floor of the Slums and could later be found in the hands of Thieves[1] from the Smuggler's Den onwards . It was not particularly powerful, but was quick and enabled Kain to perform more 'agile' combos. The Dagger's Stealth kills included slitting the victims throat and a driving the Dagger through their skull so it protruded from the mouth.
Grab attacks were of a stabbing variety (to the side and heart).[3]
Notes[]
- Prima's Blood Omen 2 Guide does not distinguish between the Sword Variant weapons and the dagger is accordingly simply called a "Sword".[5]
- In-game debug information calls the Short Sword a "Dagger".

When holding a grabbed opponent you can do three weak hits by pressing the attack button, do a heavy attack by pressing up and attack, or throw them a great distance by pressing up and the grab button. I recommend to inflict the most damage is to do two weak hits and finish off with either the heavy attack or throw.". GameFAQS. Blood Omen 2 Strategy Guide (2002)(by Chetflavin).
