Recommended combination
Product description
The main gauche or left-hand dagger was often used together with the rapier and offered additional options for attack and defence. The fencing schools that spread throughout Europe during this period taught the use of both weapons in combination.
The blade of approx. 28 cm is made of 1566 carbon steel. The grip is wrapped with brown cord, lies comfortably in the hand and provides room for fencing gloves. In terms of style, this main gauche fits well with the swept hilt rapier. Including scabbard.
This weapon is intended for collectors, as decoration and as a historical accessory for re-enactment and living history. The blade is not suitable for combat or sparring.
