It is not too common - but it is a thing, in the past a sword and dagger was the favored way, or like me - a gun and a sword. I am not surprised even a skilled general might not do it, it requires some innate... [What the hell is that word in this tongue?] ability to use both hands with skill.

Granted, I am usually shooting with both.
