A caterpillar
Of course not.
The American Dagger Moth's caterpillar is fuzzy and yellow with what looks like black spikes. But a closer look shows it is just fuzz.

Actually it a gun dagger. The dagger is mounted below the gun barrel. The idea is very old.

Because the caterpillar is an intermediate stage of the development. It will go through something called metamorphosis after which it will look like its parents. Think of the caterpillar like a sort of mobile egg, which doesn't look much like its parents either.
There is no such thing as a chakram dagger. A chakram is a circular sharpened weapon made in India and used by the Sihk warriors. A dagger is a knife. It's an oxymoron akin to saying "straight circle."
My three year old was holding an American Dagger Moth caterpillar and told me it stung her on her arm as it was crawling about. The "sting" so to speak actually made her itch for a little bit. It wasn't until days, or even a week later that she developed little skin colored bumps on both arms. I am assuming the "rash" bumps are from the caterpillar but not 100% sure. She does not itch, has no fever, and they are basically hard to detect unless you look at them in certain light. I am waiting for them to disappear and it has been over three weeks since the caterpillar sting.
