If you want to brind up the duel wielding subject, then yes, its great for dueling in the streets of venice, or any other city in the Renaissance period, but not for going into a war zone, and expecially not with Grimm. The fact is, that duel wielding is more of a modern thing and was rarely done during the ages of old. Personally, If I were to go up against a Grimm, then the first thing that comes to mind is a viking spear, not a rapier. But since the subject matter is a rapier and dagger, then the best chance you and me have got is to use Guerrilla warfare, hit and run tactics. Use the rapiers length to attack at a distance, then run, then ambush it with the dagger, then run, then get it with a cut to the juggular.

But the focus of the matter is what if she had a dagger. In that case, if she used it if she was disarmed, or  she was in a sotuation where using a rapier would be to her disadvantage, then drop the thing and pull out the dagger already.

Or, you could just use a spear. Simple to use, and even Caboose could use it.
