Stiletto

A stiletto, also known as a stylet, was a slender dagger used for piercing leather and plated armor, and mail such as chain mail.

Description
Stilettos had slim blades that were triangular or square in shape and ended in a sharp point. They were narrow enough to be concealed in sword canes or even in the handle of a bastard sword.

History
Many cities prohibited the use of stilettos because they could be easily concealed on the body, such as one used by the bandit known as Shadowhawk who operated within the King's Forest in 1335 DR.
