I understand your reasoning, on weapon sizes being overly big, however that is in keeping with Games Workshop, and their design of Warhammer, going back to the bengining, and sort of their Trademark , is over sized weapons .
Making weapons, look normal and historical accurate in appearance, wouldnt be Warhammer,

Just run with the skins you like... a guildy during retail complained the models in general were to cartoony compared to DAOC or EQ, I replied, "that's how GW made the table top models. They bordered on the satirical"
Considering the skill balancing issues the devs currently have, adjusting the handle size(only minor issue here) on the daggs might be a while in coming.

When it comes to WE dagger, the bigger the better.

It's all about the blood spray, got to get proper coverage of those luscious locks.

Witch Elf dagger size comparison? Don't those broads suffer from enough mental issues without penis-envy being chief among them?

Can we stop using any lore to justify this class? I mean witch elves are not remotely close to stealthy. Honestly witch elves should be choppas.

This is an issue with all classes in all mmos, not just WEs. The higher the weapon level is, the bigger it gets. It seems to be the only way that they can visually convey the power of the weapon, and then when they finally get to big, they add a glow to said big weapons.
If you review the weapons you posted, you'll see that all the high level ones, as well as the ones that use high level skins, are the ones that are greatly oversized. This size increase also applies to gear.
...and with regards to the lore... you can't always use that as an excuse. A lot of this game is lore breaking. A lot.
EX: once your character dies- it dies for good. There is no "respawning."

Their daggers are more like short swords really.

I'd love to have the option to say use a tactic that neuters the Stealth but makes WE into a proper frontline class with medium armour + Charge. (same way WL can go Loner, abandon pet but become olympic jumper)
Stealth helps the class regarding ganking and sneaking into keeps, limited use in actual RvR and sc fighting if fight lasts longer than 5-10 seconds. (ofc helps sneaking away while your wb wipes lol)
Theorycrafting/hoping; like DoK/WP ab ex where class becomes different via different covenant/prayer, a WE Kiss choice would either allow it to be a ganker against healers (like atm), duellist (can be specced for now) or a proper frontline mdps with medium armour values + AoE dmg potential.

This is so true. On live I had to use low level pistols on my WH, because all higher ranked sc weapons looked like fully modded assault rifles used with one hand. It is so ridiculous.

Fantasy-physics and lore is really no good excuse for this.
