Default Dagger skins

I don't really get extravagant daggers, mainly because they're so small and rarely seen. My own sin uses a pair of q9 Dirks. But are there any dagger skins that are worth getting, or are priced high right now?

I use the oppressor's daggers, really nice when dyed white or black and the Alari's double blades, nice big daggers which I can actually see.

What do you mean by 'are there any dagger skins that are worth getting'? It sounds like you want expensive dagger skins just because they're expensive. If that's the case, don't bother. Get whatever skin you like the most: you'll be happier, probably have spent less cash, and it's not like other people will be in awe of how awesome your daggers are anyway.

I'm not a fan of unrealistic daggers, so my Ranger (with non-elite Druids) uses Norn Daggers. They're nice and big too.

I agree with the guy above. The only daggers worth getting are the daggers you want. If you need help in forming your taste ;p >

I use Oppressors, Zodiacs & Chromiums.

Tormenteds are a decent size.
Zodiacs are very bright.
Aureates is an awesome skin. They are my three main daggers.
Shiro's blades are a green with decent stats (vamp), and are i believe the biggest daggers in the game.

Gold rarity steel daggers are pretty decent, and I've always been fond of split chakrams. Both are pretty cheap though.

My sin uses Salient Daggers. I've always liked the skin, it's not too big and flashy but also its more ornate than the basic skins.

But Crude Daggers look pretty nice, despite the name

for a good size dagger, go for Steel Daggers (common). Theres 3 forms of Steel Daggers, common being the larger version. The rare version looks nice but is smaller

If you look at them closely, I think the oni daggers are beautiful, and slightly creepy.

I'm also a big fan of golden talons and dragon kamas.

A good set of dragon kamas may set you back 10k or more, but the rest of these are generally pretty cheap.

Consider savage daggers, too. They look the most...well, painful, to me, of all the dagger skins.

Storm Daggers are nice, as are Oppressor, celestial and zodiac. But whatever floats your boat really.... check out the gallery on the official wiki if you wanna pick a nice skin.

Whatever happens to look nice and/or match your character I guess..

I like/use:
Dragon Kamas (Black)
Oppressor's (Black)
Undead Daggers (Bonus Mission Pack)
Steel Daggers (Rare)
Law and Order (Like skin, dislike mods)
Alari's Double Blades (For fun)
Shiro's (For fun)

Used to Hidesplitter's (Savage Black-dyed)

Need to find a pair of Salients and I'll have all the ones I really like.

Demon Fangs is IMO the best looking dagger in the game.

I also like lots of other cool-looking daggers like Torment, Salient, Savage, Golden Talons, Dragon Kamas, Undead, Deldrimor, Steel, Crescent Blades, and Crude.
But Demon Fangs are still my favorite.

Demon Fangs have a nice shape, but they're pretty flat...

Jeweled Daggers are neat. They're small and simple. Apparently they can give Sapphires and Rubies when salvaged.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Stygian Daggers, they are pretty trippy looking!

Out of convenience I have been using Chkrr's Pincers and Ceremonial Daggers (perf vampiric and zealous greens). My Crescent Blades have been doing alright too, they dye well enough.

Also, have to dig the Law and Order set. Seems like it was made with a Conjure Frost build in mind!

Anyone know, of the Zodiac, Celestial, and Oppressor's Daggers which has a brighter animation? It's too bad most daggers are so small :3
