The Worn Dagger is a weapon item found in a gift box in Asgore's Home. Similar to its defensive counterpart, the Heart Locket, it is a Neutral Route counterpart of the Real Knife. It is associated with the first human.

When it is equipped and used to FIGHT, it depicts a curled, red slash animation. This animation and sound it makes is shared with the Stick, Toy Knife, and Real Knife.

Trivia

• The flavor text foreshadows the upcoming encounter with Flowey in the Neutral Route.
• The red slash animation and sound is preset at certain moments, regardless of the equipped weapon:
  • It is the default animation when the protagonist attacks Photoshop Flowey.
  • It is used to kill Flowey at the end of Neutral and Genocide Route.
  • On the Genocide Route, it is used twice when the protagonist attacks Sans during his "special attack."
  • On the Genocide Route, it is used without the FIGHT option versus Asgore and Flowey.
  • It is used by the first human at the end of the Genocide Route.
