Item: Flaying Knife
This long, thin +1 striking Wounding dagger has a smooth edge on one side and a serrated edge on the other.
Its persistent bleed damage comes from slicing away long strips of the target's flesh, and it deals 1d8 bleed on a hit instead of 1d6. A creature takes a -2 status penalty to saving throws against diseases for as long as it has persistent bleed damage from this knife.
Critical Specialisation Effects
Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.
Knife: The target takes 1d6 persistent bleed damage. You gain an item bonus to this bleed damage equal to the weapon's item bonus to attack rolls.
