Default Re: Very minor question: How are knives classified for the purpose of pricing?

So where do knives (and to a lesser extent daggers) fit in? Intuitively, they don't seem like "sword-class" weapons. But they can deal both cutting and impaling damage, so I'm not sure where to fit them otherwise. Is this specifically addressed somewhere?
I've always put them in the 'impaling' camp, though I could see arguments for them being in the 'sword' camp.
