Trust me on this knife weapons stab. I found this out by accident recently and you don't have to be an assassin to get a stab echo. 1 apples and orange were not talking about combat echoes 2 u dont have to have razor (or any weapon skill) to see the room echo of how u got hurt stabbers are an automatic subset of piercers which u dont need to branch but which yes backstabby classes can identify before they use itthe echo were talking about comes when u examine a weapon and that is (or was unless they changed something in the last some years) limited to certain classes. itll tell u its a stabber

This is one of the reasons I think advanced weapons as they are now are silly. The weapon I had didn't even appear to be a knife weapon, which is why I grabbed it. when I hit what I was fighting and I saw the echo, I knew I had a knife weapon, I assessed it and sure enough....knife weapon. This is why I say you can use them, but if you're up against something nasty you might be in trouble. You're going to miss a lot if you don't have the skill. Do you know what the sdesc of the knife was?

The only 'knife weapons' I have ever seen were sparring knives, and they echoed 'slash'
Something else I have come across are weapons with the wrong properties assigned, so this stab slash thing might be that.

I've seen an npc in the rinth with a weapon that didn't seem to have either category when assessed (I was burglar so had both skills)
