- ―Collector to T'Challa[src]
The Dark Matter Dagger is a powerful dagger that was wielded by Malekith.
History[]
Dark Elf Conflict[]
Preparing Algrim's Mission[]
Once Malekith discovered that the Aether had found a new host in Asgard, his lieutenant Algrim volunteered to infiltrate the palace and in the process transform into a Kursed. Malekith then used the Dark Matter Dagger to create a wound in Algrim's stomach and inserted a Kurse Stone within.[1]
Sacking of Asgard[]
During the Sacking of Asgard, Malekith tracked Jane Foster to the king's chambers in the Royal Palace of Valaskjalf in order to take the Aether from her. Finding Foster being guarded by Frigga, Asgard's queen, he attempted to duel her in order to get to Foster. Malekith drew the Dark Matter Dagger in order to fight back against Frigga, but Frigga deftly disarmed Malekith, causing the dagger to drop to the ground. The dagger was then left behind in the palace as Malekith and Kurse escaped after successfully managing to kill Frigga.[1]
Alternate Universe Versions[]
Used by the Collector[]
Collector with the dagger
In an alternate universe, Malekith's dagger was owned by Collector, who added it to his collection. The Dark Matter Dagger was briefly used by Collector during his fight against T'Challa.[2]
Capabilities[]
The Dark Matter Dagger is quite powerful. It can pierce through Asgardian Armor with ease. The dagger's blade could extend to the size of an arming sword's blade as shown in Malekith's fight with Frigga. When the Collector used it against T'Challa, the dagger could easily pierce through a Kronan's arm that T'Challa used to protect himself and rip it apart when the Collector dragged him by the Kronan arm while the dagger was still imbedded in it and pulled it out.
