Description
The Main Gauche, or left hand dagger, was often used with the rapier, providing an added dimension in both offence and defence, and the “Schools of Fence” which proliferated in Europe during this period taught the use of the two pieces in combination. The Main Gauche would often match the Rapier in styling, while incorporating features which maximized the effectiveness of the piece. The black titanium coated stainless steel guard and pommel are matte finished. The brown cord wrapped grip is comfortable in the hand and leaves enough space to wear fencing gloves if desired.
