Aime's Defenders
Adds defensive daggers to Skyrim, including in certain loot tables. They'll be less effective at defending than a sheild, but will do extra damage when 'bashing'. 

Craft the 'defenders' at a crafting table and improve them at a grindstone (not a work-bench!). They use the same ingredients as your normal attacking daggers. You can also find them distributed around the world of Skyrim. 

You can find an iron defender on the table in Warmaiden's in Whiterun if you'd like to try one out when you start off, but you'll have to steal it!

You can find the bound defender tome around the game world in normal drop lists, but there is one waiting for you in your room in The College of Winterhold too.

Once you hit level 35, you can obtain Dragon Priest defenders near the named Dragon Priests.
