Quiva	Quotes and Pics	Dagger
	"I was most fond, perhaps, of the balanced saddle knife, the quiva; it is about a foot in length, double edged; it tapers to a dagger like point. I acquired, I think, skill in its use. At forty feet I could strike a thrown tospit; at one hundred feet I could strike a layered boskhide disk, about four inches in width, fastened to a lance thrust in the turf." ---Nomads of Gor, page 67 "All men of Torvaldsland, incidentally, even if otherwise unarmed, carry a knife at their master belt."--- Marauders of Gor, pg 50 "the quiva itself is regarded, on the whole, as more of a missile weapon than a hand knife" ---Nomads of Gor, page 124 "Most quivas, incidentally, are wrought in the smithies of Ar". ---Nomads of Gor, page 124 "At her waist she wore a jeweled scabbard, protruding from which I saw the ornamented, twisted black of a Turian dagger; Free Women in Torvaldsland commonly carry a knife"--- Marauders of Gor, pg 156

The quiva of the Wagon Peoples is a fast and efficient weapon.... normaly thrown but also able to be used in hand to hand combat, slowly but surely the use of this knife is spreading across Gor...
