Is this considered a good CoC dagger?

with my passives and critical curse i had at lvl 64 64% crit chance for the attack, not optimal, but with insane attack speed i was having quite a bit of procs.

and again, that dagger costed my 1 chaos because people would pay exalts for 9%crit chance daggers with 1.2 aps but nothing for 7% crit daggers with 1.75 aps

Just curious, you got like 700% increased crit from gear+passive? That would be quite impressive, at lv64 no less. Or are you adding in ~300% from the power charges?

In regards to Crits per sec or CPS,

base CPS = (base APS)*(base explicit dagger crit%)*[1+(imlicit dagger crit%)+(all other inc crit%)]

Increased attack speed and increased crit% on dagger works the same for all base types, so they are neglected.
Let's call (all other inc crit%) X and calculate CPS for a couple daggers.

1. Ambusher
APS=1.6
exp crit%=6.68%
imp crit%=40%

CPS=10.688*(1.4+X)=14.9632+10.688X

2. Platinum Kris
APS=1.2
exp crit%=6.98%
imp crit%=80%

CPS=8.736*(1.8+X)=15.7248+8.736X

For X>39.02% Ambusher has larger CPS than Platinum Kris.

X is usually >400%, so I can safely say that Ambusher is the best base, all else being equal. Runner-up is probably Poignard & Stiletto, haven't really checked though.

TL;DR:
1. Base APS is much more important than implicit crit %.
2. The difference in base APS is much greater than that in base explicit crit %. So Base APS is also much more important than explicit crit %.
3. Ambusher is the best base for CPS, provided you have the mana regen to handle it of course.
