The '''falcon knife earrings''' is a recurring weapon in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' franchise. Like its [[Falcon blade|larger variant]], the falcon knife earrings attack twice per turn. However they can only be wielded by female characters in most installments and possess a lower attack bonus. To compensate for this, both strikes can inflict [[Critical Hit|critical hit]]s, be amplified by [[Oomph]] and [[Focus Strength]], and do not suffer the percentage reduction of the [[Sword Weapon Family|sword]] version.

Though classified as {{Knives}}, the weapons were a pair of actual earrings before {{VIII}}, in which all attack animations per weapon type were standardized and the piercings were changed to be a pair of {{Knives}} that just so happened to look like earrings.
