| Knives are recurring type of weapon in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]] franchise. Though not as powerful as larger blades, knives are reliable weapons that are most often used by character unable to make use of heavier arms, such as [[thief|thieves]] and [[mage]]s.

| | |
| Frequently, Knives possess special attributes to compensate for their power, afflicting opponents with paralysis or instant death depending on the weapon equipped. Further more, one knife in particular has gained notoriety for its effectiveness in combating [[Metal Slime]]s--the [[Poison Needle]]. Because the dirk is set to '''always''' deal 1 point of damage upon a successful hit, patient players can whittle down a Metal Slime's HP in a scant few turns.
