Blade of the warrior.
The Klingon battle knife is designed primarily for versatility of use, so that the user is never caught at a disadvantage.  Two small, secondary blades eject from the knife's sides, providing both a hand guard and another set of cutting edges.  A brutally spiked pommel fastens the hilt together to provide a damaging surprise attack or give a devastating backhand stroke.
