Exceptional Steel Poniards

Description
"Conan did not reply; he merely stood and glared at her with his burning eyes, testing the edge of his poniard with a callused thumb."

- Rogues in the House

While all poniards are capable of fast stabbing attacks with their venom coated blades, the extra strength of a steel poniard means that it can also be used to parry the attacks of enemies.

Using a poniard to parry requires more skill than a shield, but if successful such a parry will leave the enemy open for counter attack. Poniards are the weapon of choice in Zingaran duels for exactly this reason.
