Hanwei Antiqued Gustav Main Gauche – Royalty Style Parrying Dagger

The Main Gauche was a popular sidearm in Renaissance and post-Renaissance Europe, not only featured in many duels but also as an extravagant part of the era's gracious attire. This particular Main Gauche was historically carried by King Gustav Adolf II, a 17th-century ruler of Sweden.

It is crafted with historical accuracy and features a museum-quality patina that gives it an authentic and original appearance, akin to a museum piece.

The blade is made of high carbon steel, suitable for cutting practice. It features an unsharpened ricasso, a double-edged, pointy blade, and a reinforced mid-rib across its core.

The one-handed handle is wrapped with cord. The guard and its fittings are made of stainless steel, which requires very little maintenance. The quillons are pointed upward, and the large pommel provides heft and proper balance.

This Main Gauche can be paired with any type of Rapier blade and comes with its own scabbard for easy carrying.
