Silver-Inlaid Dagger gives a Human it equips +2/+0 and first strike for one mana to cast and one to equip — a respectable stat bump, but the Human restriction means it does nothing outside tribal. Run it only if your commander cares specifically about Humans attacking; everywhere else it's a dead card.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Silver-Inlaid Dagger is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but competitive non-rotating formats have zero interest in it — one-mana equipment that gates on creature type doesn't move the needle in formats where efficiency is measured in fractions of a mana. Commander is the only realistic home, and even there Silver-Inlaid Dagger earns a slot only in dedicated Human tribal builds where the equip cost stays low and the +2/+0 plus first strike meaningfully supports an attacking gameplan. Outside Human tribal, skip it entirely.

Price Context
Current price
$0.09 bulk tier
At $0.09, Silver-Inlaid Dagger is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a bulk bin rather than buy deliberately. Demand is narrow enough that the price is unlikely to move in either direction.
