Thieves can backstab with any MELEE weapon that a true class thief is allowed to use; in other words longswords, shortswords, katanas, scimitars, ninja-tos, wazikashis, clubs, staves, and daggers (I hope I've included everything here). Note that there are a few magic staves, for example the Staff of the Magi, that are not usable by thieves, so a multi- or dual classed wizard/thief using one couldn't do a backstab.
