The black dagger is a dagger slightly more accurate than the steel dagger. Like most daggers it can be poisoned, giving an advantage in combat. Like all black weapons, wielding it requires an Attack level of 10.
As with all black and white equipment, the black dagger cannot be made from raw materials using the Smithing skill.
