Vin's Obsidian Daggers
itemPair of sharp black obsidian daggers with straight blades approximately 10-12 inches long. Sheathed at the waist for quick access in throwing and stabbing. Non-ferrous glassy material immune to steel and iron Allomantic pushes or pulls.
Vin's obsidian daggers debut in *The Well of Ascension* as a practical innovation in her arsenal, crafted from non-ferrous glassy material to evade Allomantic steelpushing and ironpulling, ensuring she remains lethally agile against metal-reliant foes. Sheathed at her waist for swift deployment in throws or stabs, these 10-12 inch straight-bladed weapons underscore Vin's tactical evolution amid escalating threats from the Steel Ministry and koloss hordes. Though their prominence wanes in later books as Vin masters more esoteric powers, they symbolize her grounded reliance on unpushable precision in the chaotic push toward the Well's ascension.
