ok heres the deal, there is no "better" weapon
it all depends how u are speced and what ur going to be doing (raiding, PvP) the best thing to do for PvP is go shadowstep/sub (42) and then the rest in asasination.  this spec will work best (imo) with a sword, mace, fist weapon in the main hand and a dagger (for speed) in the offhand.  if u spec using the same number of points but in different options u can use daggers and do like 4k crits on an ambush at lvl 70.  if u are a lower lvl and planning to be lvling definetly go sword and combat spec as it gives  more dmg

i agree with guy above ^^^ but with resilience now, ambush crits r not as great as they could be but pretty much just stun lock them=P  combo is ; prem, shadowstep, cheapshot, then eviserate if you have talents in master of sub for the 10% extra dmg its nice =DD

I also agree with the guy above but it depends on the spec and if you went subtley like i did i would go daggers but that is just me.

i am a lvl 24 ud rogue. I am combat specced. I have a mace in my main hand and a dagger in my off. I apply poison to them and I go to town. I feel I kill my enemies alot faster than I did with a sword in my main. But i am not sure about when I get higher lvls. But that is what is working for me right now. i am also trying to decide if i should go with a sword instead of a mace. For better dps  Go to the armory on blizzards website. http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Arathor&n=Shadw

Shadowstep is better with two swords not with two daggers.Combat spec is better with two swords than with two daggers.Resilience as I have posted many times in the last few weeks killed most Dagger specs.If you really wanna go Daggers then I would recommend you to go Mutilate spec.Daggers are alot of fun I have a set I go Mutilate with,but for any other spec especially for Arena it is better to go with two swords if you wanna have a good chance at getting a good rating.If you dont care about Rating then do as you please because Daggers lack in Arena period with the exception of Mutilate spec.

You want to hit slow but hard, or faster but weaker? Your choice ;P
