How To..
 
Measure the curve of a dagger?

Silly question, but I have no idea how to do it!

To get a curvature...
You may easily get the distance between two ends of the arc (chord) and the Segment Height, measured from the arc to a line between two ends.
These two parameters are enough for calculating of the arc 's radius.
