Daggers are cool. They are easy to get, have good to-hit, and don't require a launcher. They are not poisonable, though.

Daggers are cool. They are easy to get, have good to-hit, and don't require a launcher. They are not poisonable, though.
But the main question is: How many dagger should I carry? A normal, an orcish, or an elven dagger weighs 10, and a silver dagger weighs 12. They are much heavier than an arrow or a dart.
They always have been the cause of burdening, so I want to get answer to this question.
Also, I have some additional questions:
1. Silver daggers are demanding to me, as they have silver damage. Is it worth to wish for them?
2. If I got too many daggers, what should I do with them? Is it wise to use one of them to engrave Elbereth?
Sidenote: According to my calculation, the only role whose best ranged weapon is daggers (esp. silver daggers) is Valkyrie. Any other roles have better weapon to use for.
