- Lot Description
This 17th-century European Left-Handed Dagger is an exceptional example of combat innovation and martial functionality, designed as a complement to the rapier for use in dueling and self-defense. Left-handed daggers like this were crucial for rapier-wielding duelists and fencers, allowing them to trap an opponent’s blade and swiftly counterattack.
Featuring a stout, double-edged blade with a medial ridge, this weapon was used primarily for left-handed parrying, blocking, and blade trapping, providing an essential defensive tool in one-on-one combat. A feature of this dagger is its pierced blade design, reducing overall weight while maintaining structural integrity—a technique often employed in fine weapons of the era.
The hilt is wrapped with fine wire, offering a secure and comfortable grip while adding a touch of refinement. The dagger's pommel is intricately carved, adding both balance and a touch of elegance, making this piece not only a deadly tool but also a symbol of prestige.
Provenance: A world-renowned US Armor and Weapons Dealer with impeccable provenance, Andrew Garcia. Who acquired it from the estate of a client who acquired it from him in the 2010s and recently re-acquired from his 3rd party representative.
Dimensions: Approx. 16.5"Lx4.75"W
