Uchigatana or Priscilla's dagger for bleed build ?

[Red Blade]

I'm planning of making a Bleed build focused on Lifehunt Scythe, but of course i need a backup weapon. My choise would be between these two weapons. I already know the Uchigatana pretty well, but Priscilla's dagger is something new to me. It has an higher bleed parameter (500 against 300 of Uchigatana) and it also has S in dex. It seems pretty nice, but i'm not really good with daggers. What should i get between these two weapons ?

Up to you really.

Priscilla's Dagger has lower damage, even with the scaling - Uchigatana gets A scaling at 225, and Priscilla's gets S scaling at 120.

Uchigatana builds Bleed a bit faster than the Dagger, but deals less Bleed damage on proc. Uchi has more range and a better moveset. Dagger has poor Crit scaling, even with that secret dagger modifier, especially given the low base damage.

It's all up to you really - Lifehunt bleeds really fast and also has 500 Bleed, so I'm not sure why you would want a backup weapon with bleed on it. Ideally, a backup would be for something else.

Well, i tought having a backup weapon with the Lifehunt that deals bleed to the user too would be useful if a fight last too much. I'm getting the Bloodshield and the Bloodbite ring of course, but still, a backup weapon sound like a useful thing for emergencies.
