The stiletto may be a logical progression of the poniard. This is a long, thin stabbing blade designed for quickly dispatching people who need to die. A favoured weapon of thieves and assassins, this is a weapon designed to kill, not to wound or maim, and it can do so while leaving behind only a small wound that can be hard to detect. In Codex rules, this weapon has +4 AP, so with a well-planned strike it can be effective against lightly or moderately armored opponents.
