Historical Information

Wrought of pure silver and designed for self-defense, legend holds that this dagger was the original counterpart to the great Excalibur (see Excalibur), designed to be borne simultaneously by the same divine king of old. Though handed down through generations of bards who carried on the tradition of singing that royal line's glories, it was seized by Balrahn and added to his collection, stating simply that bards, "don't need daggers to sing."

In Arthurian folklore, Carnwenhan was the personal dagger of King Arthur.
