The dirk is one of the fifteen sword types in the game. It is produced at iron mongers. On subscription oceans, the dirk may only be used by subscribers. This sword is preferred by those who shatter frequently in small, sprinkle attacks.

While the dirk is an inexpensive sword, it is considered one of the weakest swords in the game. Those who wish to use a mostly-one-color sprinkle attack would be much better served by the more expensive reversed saber.
