Aponiard (/ˈpɒnjərd/) orpoignard (French:[pwaɲaʁ]) is a long, lightweight thrustingknife with a continuously tapering, acutely pointed blade, and acrossguard, historically worn by theupper class,noblemen, or members of theknighthood. Similar in design to aparrying dagger, the poniard emerged during theMiddle Ages and was used during theRenaissance in Western Europe, particularly in France, Switzerland, and Italy.^[1]^[2]

The archaic word "spud" in English could refer to a poignard.^[3]

The armed forces ofSafavid Iran (1501–1736) used the poniard; it was considered a weapon the ownership of which was especially typical of soldiers who originated from theCaucasus region, particularlyCircassians,Georgians, andArmenians.^[4]

Modern use

[edit]

In modern French, the termpoignard has come to be defined as synonymous withdague, the general term for "dagger",^[5] and in English the termponiard has gradually evolved into a term for any small, slender dagger.^[6] In literary usage it may also mean the actual act of stabbing or piercing with a dagger.^[7]

TheFairbairn–Sykes fighting knife and the similarV-42 stiletto may be thought of as modern versions of thepoignard.
