From what I got from *cough* the dictionary *cough*, a dirk seems to be a 'short dagger of a kind formerly carried by Scottish highlanders'.

But either way it's a dagger, and can really be used by both bandits and naval officers, and probably has been.

[Midori]

The term Dirk is also apparently used as a generic term for daggers from the 171th and 18th century which I suppose is probably where most the confusion comes from.

@GodOfWar

The Highland Dirk is the only one I know of that has a short blade. The British Royal Navy, Soviet Union, and Japanese Imperial Navy all had Dirks with longer blades.

Long, short, who cares? All the matters is how you thrust it. And to @MrMinerGuy142s character, I hope you don't mind being under Max's personal command, after all she does lead the raiding/boarding parties.

My character can be called on for support- he'd probably be busy hacking into the ship, or neutralizing a ship's AI or somesuch. Having the enemy's automated turrets suddenly turn on their owners would be fun- that, or opening every airlock on the ship.

Added a few minor items to Max's rapsheet. Boy was that a wild night out. Maybe you could ask her about it one day.

@DarkFey
Pfffft!
I blew up Cuba!
And the Caribbean but no one cares about them

That is, until I timetraveled back and fixed it with a sonic screwdriver!

Damn I take a nap and come back to find this full of sex puns, and I still don't get the name of the ship joke.

@Spriggs27

The real name;
Black Dirk (dirk being an army knife, usually used in deadly thrusts)

Take this name, then relate it to the exact shape of the ship, you get;

The joke;
Black Di(c)k (another deadly item for thrusting)

Hey umm, you guys realize that I've been messing with you right ? I said it in my other post that I've come back to sex puns, I've realized it in one of my post before hand and have been screwing with everyone.

I still think 783 engagements won- not even total- is still way too many for a man who isn't even halfway out through a full life career.
