Please describe your suggested enhancement:
Please support "daggers" as charge. They are frequently borne, though blazoned 
under different names. Their position should be described, whether paleways or 
fessways. If not otherwise stated, the point should be upwards. The hilts, 
pommels &c. may be of different tincture. The other names and varieties are 
dirk, rapier, and skean or skene, the last a Scottish word for a weapon, which 
may perhaps best be described as a short sword.

Can you provide an example blazon?
Sable, two daggers in saltire, points upwards, between four fleur-de-lys argent.
Gules, a fesse chequy argent and azure, a dagger paleways in base proper.
Ermine, two bars within a bordure engrailed gules; on a canton of the last a 
dagger erect proper, pomel and hilt or.

Can you provide a link to a picture of a shield showing your enhancement
