Datadagger

About the Datadagger

Half weapon, half spycraft tool, the datadagger hides a slicing spike behind an unremarkable knife profile. The narrow blade handles the wet work of a quiet kill, while a concealed data-spike in the hilt or pommel can be jacked into a terminal, a droid's access port, or a lock to pull data or crack security. Slicers, infiltration specialists, and intelligence operatives favor it precisely because it draws no attention: a blade is an ordinary thing to carry, and no one expects the same tool to be picking their computer's locks. In a fight it is a light, fast finesse weapon best suited to a sudden thrust rather than a prolonged duel, but its real value lies in versatility. An operative caught between a sentry and a sealed data vault appreciates a tool that solves both problems.
