<In Nomine Patris...>
I do not see anything wrong with using two weapons, even if they
happen to be of the same type. I find myself comfortable fighting with
two sai, two escrime sticks, or two boken. It merely takes a great deal
of practice.
In my AD&D campaign, I allow multiple weapons, subject of course
to the requisate penalties for dexterity and so on, and it seems to
work fine. In the case of a thief backstabbing, I only allow two backstabs
if there are justifiable circumstances, i.e. haste, complete surprise, etc.
