Actually the Dirk is better then a Well Balanced Rapier as well. The WB
Rapier is 6 dam 23 delay, but no stat bonuses and wieghs over twice as much.
Personally I feel the Dirk is sold for WAY under it true value,
considering the WB Rapier sells for 225 plat. The Dirk, IMO, is the most
unbalanced weapon in the game. But that said they can have mine when they
pry it from my cold, dead fingers <grin>.
