The shape of many blades with convex sides was undoubtedly the result of sharpening, but some may have been designed with this outline when a long narrow blade was needed for a special purpose. The daggers with large rivet holes in the round base probably originated by the Hyksos of the Egyptian Twelfth Dynasty. -
