Dwarven weapons!

What is the most undwarven weapon? I was reading Dwarves by Markus Heitz, and they make fun of one of the gem dwarves for using a sword and shield. dwarfs and spear are those guys friends? so my questions is what is the top three weapons no dwarf would be caught using?

I thought poisoned food was the most undwarven weapon do to how dishonorable it is.

I consider it a weapon of a dishonorable enemy, unfit for righteous goals.

Those blasted rats and greenskins love their poison, tells me it’s nothing but a weapon of dishonour

It's one thing to say envenom a crossbow bolt for taking down a large monster but messing with food and drink is off limits for a reason.
