The special attack's first hit must deal damage for the second hit to deal damage, similar to the dragon claws special. The highest the dagger can possibly hit with its special is 40-40 against players and 46-46 while using a Salve amulet (e) against undead creatures. Note its special attack is actually significantly weaker then the dragon daggers.

A player performs the abyssal dagger's special attack.

The abyssal dagger surpasses the Staff of the dead in both Strength and accuracy, with +5 Attack bonus, and +3 Strength bonus, making the abyssal dagger the best one-handed Strength training weapon in the game for players with the ability to wield it. Players should note that the abyssal dagger is primarily a stab weapon while the staff of the dead is primarily a slash weapon. The Zamorakian hasta surpasses the abyssal dagger as a stab weapon with its prayer bonus, defensive stats, and additional stab attack bonus, but many players choose not to use it due to its combat styles being limited to defensive and controlled (shared).
