As I remember, "Keen" has influence on the critical damage roll range. (it is double or something, can't remember for sure)

So if a dagger for instance has 19-20 as a critical roll, then a Keen would have 17-20.

Just to expand, a keen weapon doubles the existing critical threat range off a weapon (improved critical not included).
