The Cursed Dagger is a Hardmode non-consumable dagger that is dropped by Clingers. It throws a fast dagger along with two inaccurate weaker daggers. The daggers pierce once, deal 80% damage on the second hit, and inflict the Cursed Inferno debuff on contact. Like the Shadowflame Knife, it is heavily affected by gravity. It is the Corruption counterpart to the Ichor Spear.

Performing a stealth strike with the Cursed Dagger will throw a single dagger that creates a lingering cursed flame vortex on hit that deal 75% damage.

Its best modifier is Flawless.
