The '''Dread dagger''' is a recurring [[Knife Weapon Family|knife]] in the {{DQSeries}}. It deals additional damage to {{MFamilies}}s of the [[Bug family]] and has a chance to inflict either [[paralysis]] or [[confusion]] when attacking. Though very similar to the [[Poison moth knife]], the Dread dagger is not always the upgraded version of that weapon.
