If you have proficiency, equip in main hand to gain:

 Pommel Strike (): Make a non-lethal attack against an enemy and possibly  Daze them. ( Recharge: Short rest.)

 Lacerate (): Slash at your target's vital points to make it  Bleed. ( Recharge: Short rest.)

 Rush Attack (): Charge forward and attack the first enemy in your way, possibly pushing them  Off Balance. ( Recharge: Short rest.)

In the game files, the root template of this sword (UUID 5908898d-5d9e-40de-ab07-3f8fb5f0174c) actually describes a shortsword, which is also used as the basis for the  Knife of the Undermountain King. In fact, the magical properties of that sword are also added to this root template (via the <Stats> tag), meaning that this item should have those properties as well, and will do so if spawned via the console. However, the weapon that's spawned in-game is not directly based on the root template but rather on a stat entry called WPN_KingsKnife which inherits properties from WPN_Longsword. This ends up making this item functionally identical to a common longsword.
Equipping a hireling with this weapon, then dismissing and re-hiring them, changes this weapon's stats and weapon actions to those of  Knife of the Undermountain King, as its root template has the same stats.
