The Main Gauche, or left hand dagger was often used with the rapier, providing and added dimension in both offense and defense, and the "school of fence" which proliferated in Europe during this period taught the use of the two weapons in combination. The Main Gauche would often match the Rapier in styling, while incorporating features which maximized the effectiveness of the piece.
