Step into the elegance and precision of the early 1600s with this meticulously crafted Renaissance-style Rapier and Main Gauche set. Rooted in the traditions of European dueling and fencing, this weapon honors the legacy of noblemen and fencing masters alike.

During the 17th century, the rapier was a staple in the art of swordplay, carried by gentlemen for self-defense and often used to settle matters of honor. The Main Gauche, or left-hand dagger, served as a complementary weapon, providing defensive capabilities and a dual-wield fighting style that dominated the “Schools of Fence” throughout Europe.
