What's with the Assasin Knife?

I kept reading about an Assassin Knife that has very low attack power and the chance to KO an enemy in one hit in a bunch of FFIV SNES FAQs. I never found one though. :(

Then when FFIV Advance comes out it turns out to be a purchasable weapon with quite a high attack power and it doesn't have the ability to inflict a one hit KO.

What's with all this? :confused:

The Assassin Dagger's SNES incarnation still exsists in the GBA version, but only as data and is disabled and only accessible through Gameshark or item-changing glitches. The purchasble Assassin Dagger does have a chance to kill off an enemy, but I very rarely it see it. Certainly you won't see it happen to any enemies in the Lunar Ruins.

Oh. :rolleyes2

But what's with the Assassin Knife's stats changing dramatically between the SNES and GBA Version? :confused:

The same reason why there's the Lunar Ruins or the Lunar Tomes or ZeromusEG.

I really think they should've changed the knife's name since its stats have changed a lot. :(
