Before the sword, even before the spear, there was a dagger. In fact, the dagger is probably the first real weapon created by mankind. Oh, of course, it may not be called a dagger, more of a real knife, made of stone and then chopped and scraped to a sharp point. It is believed that Thag, a popular caveman in prehistoric times, first invented the dagger to kill an opponent caveman named Grung. Quoting him, "I am tired of Grung hitting me with stones. I want to fix him." However, since the whole incident happened before the recorded history, it was almost all hearsay.
The real dagger is a weapon with two sharp edges. The length and width of the dagger vary greatly throughout history, especially in the early days when the lines between the dagger and the sword are clearly blurred. Typical daggers are no more than 14 inches in length, and European daggers usually have beams and idiots [and, to understand medieval Europeans, perhaps bloodstains].
The sword is said to be due to the dagger. In the arms race in ancient history, it was alleged that the daggers became longer and longer until they became swords in all aspects. When the sword dominates the battle, the dagger still exists for several reasons; they are very suitable for close combat, they can be easily hidden, and if weighted properly, they may be thrown onto the opponent. The dagger is still very popular in the restaurant to cut and skew food [severe].
During the Renaissance, the dagger regained most of its popularity, but this time it played a supporting role. The sword becomes lighter and faster, allowing the combatant to freely hold another weapon. The weapon is usually a dagger, mainly used for parry, binding or slowing down and the opponent's blade. Later, a dagger with a large basket of hand guards was created to make the weapon more suitable for its new defensive role. The new dagger is often referred to as "Main-Gauche", which means "my goodness!" in French. It is said that his blade was blocked by such a dagger and the first person died. Ok, that's not true. "Main-Gauche" actually means "left hand", which is less exciting than my definition, isn't it?
In history, the dagger also has more insidious roles. They are small enough to hit them quickly and fatally, making them an even more annoying type of weapon. Assassins rely on them because they are easy to hide. Julius Caesar, Caligula [and several other Roman emperors], poet Christopher Marlow, St. Lucy, Count of the Regent of Scotland, and many others in history were assassinated by enemies wielding daggers. Another dark task of giving a dagger is to send sacrifices, whether sacrifices or humans. Over time, many cultures have adopted ritual rituals, which are usually done with daggers [usually gorgeous daggers].
Over time, the dagger finally gives way to the tool. The tool is usually a single-edged weapon for a variety of useful functions, only one of which is killing. Hunters, soldiers, craftsmen, repairers and angry madmen everywhere carry knives [Strongblade obviously does not tolerate or tolerate illegal activities of any kind of weapons, and we will not sell our goods to us for irresponsible use. Their people are either "crazy"].
