Shadowflame Knife

The Shadowflame Knife is a Hardmode melee weapon that auto-fires small flaming knife projectiles that don't consume ammunition or mana. Its projectiles ricochet twice off of enemies only (not blocks), dissipating on their third enemy impact. They also inflict the Shadowflame debuff, which deals an additional 5 damage per second for up to 3 seconds. The Shadowflame Knife is dropped by the Goblin Summoner (16% chance, or 33% in Expert Mode), which spawns during Hardmode Goblin Invasions.

Its best Modifier is Godly, since the size isn't modifiable.

Tips

 * Useful if acquired early Hardmode but will still be a good choice as a ranged weapon later on.
