During WWII the OSS (think James Bond's organization) starting arming covert operatives with something called a lapel dagger. it was a very simple, small, and basic dagger that was worn quite literally in the lapel of a suit or coat.

I decided to make a US version, so instead of a a dagger profile I did a Bowie style clip point. And the tassel allows it to be thrown, though admittedly it doesn't have enough weight to do much more than stick in.
