The Serpent Dagger is one of the Blades of Chaos, a series of edged fantasy creations from the Fourth Age of the "Tale of the Swords of the Ancients", created by fantasy artist Kit Rae. The Serpent Dagger, the most vile of the Blades of Chaos, was called Nasek in the Ancients language and it was fashioned in the shape of many intertwined snakes and held a serpentine blade of unbreakable metal. Six spikes were thrust into the hilt to represent the six Ancient Ones who had given it part of their power. Includes wood display plaque.
