{{name|Zelda's Dagger}} is a weapon featured in ''[[The Crystal Trap]]''. As its name suggests, the dagger is [[Princess Zelda]]'s secondary weapon to defend herself, the main one being [[Zelda's Bow|her bow]]. Throughout the book, Zelda uses the dagger to defend herself from various enemies. Since the dagger is rather weak and has such a short range, Zelda only uses this weapon when fighting small, easy enemies such as [[Boomerang Demon]]s.<ref name=arrow>{{cite book|quote='Drat!' she yells. 'Arrows are no good against these monsters.' She draws her dagger to fend off the weird flying goblins.'|book=The Crystal Trap|publisher=Archway|page=65}}</ref> Moreover, the princess also uses her dagger when she has run out of arrows or when the bow is ineffective against a certain enemy, making this weapon her only chance of survival.<ref name=arrow/><ref>{{cite book|quote=Zelda reaches for one more arrow to send after the retreating horde. But her quiver is empty. 'Uh-oh!' she says to herself. With her hand on the hilt of her dagger, Zelda walks toward the exit at the end of the hall.|book=The Crystal Trap|publisher=Archway|page=25}}</ref> For stronger enemies such as [[Gibdo]]s, the dagger proves to be useless, since only a [[Magic Arrow|strong, magical arrow]] along with the bow can defeat these foes.<ref>{{cite book|quote='A dagger's no good against gibdos,' Zelda thinks. 'Even a plain arrow will pass right through them. What I need are some magic arrows.'|book=The Crystal Trap|publisher=Archway|page=33}}</ref> | |||
At one point in the book, Zelda uses her dagger to retrieve the [[Handprint]] in the [[Dark Tower]].<ref>{{cite book|quote=With the point of her dagger, Zelda carefully priest at the stones around it until the handprint comes free. She slips the print into her pouch.|book=The Crystal Trap|publisher=Archway|page=44}}</ref> Other than the casual battles, Zelda, for the most part, seems to prefer the use of her bow. | At one point in the book, Zelda uses her dagger to retrieve the [[Handprint]] in the [[Dark Tower]].<ref>{{cite book|quote=With the point of her dagger, Zelda carefully priest at the stones around it until the handprint comes free.
