Historical Information

A main gauche (French for "left hand") was a type of dagger designed to be wielded in the wielder's left hand in conjunction with a rapier or smallsword in several Renaissance schools of fencing. By wielding a rapier and dagger in the "Florentine" fencing style, the dagger could be used both for defense (i.e. parrying) and offense, much like the Dual Wield Ninja skill.
