Of all the other things, one important point to note in Solo Leveling Manhwa or anime is the usage of daggers by the main protagonist, ‘Sung Jin Woo’.
Since the first episode or chapter of Solo Leveling, JinWoo is seen using dagger.
However, his first ever dagger was nothing when it came to facing monsters. The reason he carried a dagger was because of his financial crisis.
He couldn’t afford any other weapon but a mere dagger. But, as the series progressed, we get to learn that Sung Jin woo loves using short daggers in comparison to swords.
And so, here in this article I have mentioned three strongest daggers wielded by Sung Jin Woo.
1. Kamish’s wraith; Sung Jin Woo’s strongest daggers:
These pair of daggers are so rare that there were only two in existence throughout the world.
When Thomas Andre along with the rest of the national-level hunters had to fight Kamish, (The great dragon) Thomas successfully extracted two of Kamish’s fangs and was allowed to keep them for himself.
When Thomas Andre realised that Sung Jin Woo had spared his and the lives of his guild members, he was grateful and insisted on gifting something to JinWoo.
Without a doubt, these daggers were the most valuable asset in his possession. However, he was overwhelmed by Sung Jin Woo and his kindness. And thus, he gifted the daggers.
JinWoo was surprised by the mere stats of the daggers and accepted it gladly.
Thomas explained that the daggers could easily penetrate his defences even after applying his enhancement skills that Sung Jin Woo had a hard time breaking when they fought before.
Just like it’s mentioned in the stats, both daggers reacted to the powers of Sung, upon wielding.
How deadly are Kamish’s wraith?
Sung Jin Woo had been a dagger specialist, and we should have anticipated that fact since the very beginning when the protagonist was shown using daggers.
Kamish’s daggers are nearly 7-8 times more powerful than his previous daggers.
Sung was able to eliminate the beast monarch with just four blows.
However, the frost monarch was slain with just three blows from Kamish’s daggers.
Despite the feats of the daggers, it’s imperative to consider the fact that their outcome is highly influenced by the current strength of their wielder.
Sung wasn’t able to lend powerful blows before receiving Ashborn’s full powers.
Even though he lacked in comparison to the other two Monarchs, he was able to inflict critical strikes with the help of Kamish’s daggers.
- The other monarchs had complete faith that a mere metal wouldn’t be able to scratch the likes of their skins.
- But, with Kamish’s daggers, Sung Jin Woo was able to easily penetrate and even cut the beast monarch’s hands.
- These daggers are powerful just like Sung Jin Woo quotes about strength and power.
2. Sung Jin Woo’s second strongest; “Demon King’s Daggers”
Another great dagger that Sung Jin Woo recovered after the successful elimination of the demon Baran. He also recovered the longsword along with them.
There were several other items left after the defeat of the demon king, like, the ‘healing potion’ which could cure any illness instantly when an entire bottle is consumed at once.
Those daggers and the longsword were used by the demon king effectively.
The daggers that he used earlier were not enough even to defeat the demon king. As a result, Sung had to finish the demon kings bare-handed with the full boost of the dominator’s touch.
How powerful are the demon king’s daggers?
From there on, these daggers became the strongest weapon in Sun Jin Woo’s arsenal which assisted him in defeating even the greatest foes like the Ant King.
However, the demon’s daggers failed when Sung had to face the strongest hunter of all time “Thomas Andre”.
They couldn’t penetrate his enhanced reinforcement defensive skill.

- As a result, we can estimate that the strength of the daggers is enough to deal with any S-rank hunter or demon.
- But not enough to challenge national-level hunters or demons.
Longsword That Jin Woo also received from Baran:
Sung Jin Woo benefitted the most from the demon Baran. Aside from the daggers, there was an important weapon named the ‘longsword’ that was left as a drop item after the defeat of its user.
You could refer it to be the strongest weapon of Sung JinWoo after Kamish’s wraith, but according to me, it shouldn’t occupy that position. Because our new shadow Monarch hardly uses swords as his primary weapon.
AAnd Jin Woo gives the longsword to Igris as it be be more beneficial if uses by someone who excels or is adept at using swords.
The sword features an attack power of +350 and has a passive effect that activates every time the sword is swung. It’s known as a ‘storm of white flames’ and creates a minor lighting storm within the limited area, dealing certain amount of damage to the opponents.
Bakura’s dagger; fourth strongest:
‘Bakura’s’ main weapon was this dagger. In all three attempts, Sung Jin Woo was unable to remove the shadow from Baruka’s corpse.
But since he had acquired Bakura’s dagger as a left item following his death, he was not lost.
As soon as he acquired them, they became the most powerful weapon in JinWoo’s arsenal.
How powerful is Bakura’s dagger?
Unlike the other powerful daggers, this dagger was single.
Upon wielding, the user will experience a slight increase in their movement speed because the dagger lightens its user’s weight.
Sung continued using the dagger and conquered all the hundred floors of the demon castle using Bakura’s dagger.
- The dagger had critical effects even on the demon king, however, it wasn’t enough.
- Sung Jin Woo started to use the demon’s daggers after he was done with all the floors.
Conclusion:
These were the three strongest daggers that Sung Jin Woo collected throughout his journey.
At the beginning of the series, Sung JinWoo is shown using a dagger because he is too broke and can’t afford other weapons that are suited best for slaying dungeon monsters.
There is a quote that says “Always remember those who supported you at your weakest.”
Just like that, Sung didn’t abandon using daggers! Instead, he preferred them instead of other weapons. What a throwback!
There are certain abilities and passive effects that are unique to every dagger. And most of the times, the effectiveness of the daggers are improved along with its user’s powers.
