This dagger is a standard-issue weapon for the Galactic Alliance’s "Iron Warden" shock troops, forged from the hull plating of decommissioned prison battleships. Its flat, reinforced blade is designed to pierce through riot gear and cybernetic implants, while the segmented hilt prevents the wielder’s hand from slipping onto the blade during close-quarters prison raids.

The handle’s ribbed texture is cast from melted restraint collars, a deliberate choice to remind troops of the criminals they hunt. A hidden micro-doser in the hilt can inject a fast-acting sedative into the blade—ideal for subduing high-value targets without killing them. However, the sedative supply is limited, and troops are ordered to use it only as a last resort.
