You can backstab with any melee weapon usable by thieves - it's not the weapon type that's important, just whether or not single-classed thieves can use it. So you can backstab with an ordinary quarterstaff for example, but not with the Staff of the Magi (used by a thief-mage like Jan or Nalia) as it can only be used by mages.
