There are two types of TWC weapon scripts; one for one-handed edged weapons with fluff scripts that reference a hollow pommel which can hold a dagger, and another for one-handed edged weapons that require a high degree of skill in the Two weapon combat skill. They are both tiered scripts which can be unlocked by Xerria.

Dagger-pommel weapons

Analyze Information

You analyze your brushed vultite kaskara and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "There do not seem to be any specific limitations."

The creator has also provided the following information:
This item can be altered with either a long or a show, but if the description mentions the pommel it must be hollow.  The inserted dagger fills the pommel.

The brushed vultite kaskara is fully unlocked.

You might be able to have a talented merchant lighten the brushed vultite kaskara for you.
