Rumple used it to summon the wraith, it allowed him to take the hat with Anna's tear absorbed, able to touch urn dust without being neutralized, and use the hat. I think any magic being can get the hat out of its box (or else how would anyone else/ Ingird use it), just that the dagger had to be used to specifically release the Chernabog. For Rumple, the dagger is like a wand of sorts, only needed in rare occasions. Here's an idea for next season, Rumple gives up his powers to be with Belle at the end of this season, but that causes the orginal Dark One to come back Wouldn't the dark one have to die in order for there to be a second dark one? Maybe the dark magic of the dagger, but not the first one unless it was a being born of darkness. That's what I was thinking, Lumiere did say the first Dark One was born from the darkness
