No, but you can sell it to the shopkeeper for big bucks (~$650 or so)
Also it makes a nice weapon -- better than bare hands anyway.
And it doesn't corrode (no non-weapons do) when you fight acid blobs.
And it keeps dead bats fresh for Rover.

I won with a Speleologist by the way, mostly because I found the
remains of an old Wizard character of mine -- the Wizard's hoard
included two wands of wishing.  I wished for 3 scrolls of genocide
twice (thank you, Brian), a ring of teleport control, and a +3 crysknife.

How did my W die carrying such goodies?  He forgot the hacker's creed:

		ALWAYS GENOCIDE COCKATRICES!!

(well, it's my hacker's creed anyway)
