A sturdy hardwood throwing weapon boasting a sharp metal blade.
Description
The savage dagger is Yuffie's two default weapons in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, along with the 4-Point Shuriken. It starts with two materia slots, and teaches Yuffie the Blindside ability, a strong physical attack usable even when Yuffie is immobilized or reeling from damage.
The savage dagger has attributes leaning toward magic damage. The weapon skills help with magic damage and ATB-boosting skills.

Use[]
The savage dagger builds Yuffie more toward magic damage, with a higher boost to Magic Attack than her
Attack Power, having the second-highest magic attack boost. Yuffie's ninjutsu normal attack, her magic-based weapon abilities (such as Banishment), and her Doppelgänger ability allowing her to cast spells twice, make her a very strong potential spellcaster.
Yuffie's attributes are balanced, meaning savage dagger would tilt her heavily toward this role. Although the magic attack boost is less than that provided by Crescent Sickle, that also comes with a smaller attack power attribute, and her balanced stats and many of her physical-based weapon abilities (such as Blindside and Shooting Star) may lean some to prefer to keep some degree of physical damage boost available for her without specializing too heavily. The weapon skills also allow savage dagger to build ATB more quickly, in contrast to crescent sickle, which helps with critical hits for overall damage instead.
The reverse of the savage dagger is Twin Viper. For more balanced weapons, the 4-point shuriken and Fuma Shuriken have entirely balanced attributes.
