A companion dagger to the Taza rapier. The intricately worked sail guard is a Spanish style, sometimes known as a daga vizcaína or Biscayne dagger. Note that main gauche daggers weren't just for left hand use - a gentleman would wear such a dagger full time because it's not always possible to wear a rapier in every situation, although it is entertaining to try). The Taza main gauche comes with a matching sheath and suspension frog.
