Let's say you have a longbow and quiver of arrows on your back, and then an iron sword in its scabbard attached to your belt. How easy will it be to carry all of those around, while still avoiding mobs and shooting them?

In addition, using a longbow requires a great deal of strength and practice. Someone who had mastered the longbow would most likely use it as their primary weapon, and not be terribly skilled with a sword. Thus, they would use a dagger, as it would not be an obstacle to them shooting and maneuvering among the terrain.
