However, as soon as you dual wield the same weapons the AC mod goes away, regardless of if it is two longswords, bastard swords, daggers, whatever.

This field provides a +1 bonus to AC, or a +3 bonus if you are wielding a blade in one hand and have your other hand free (not carrying a shield, an off-hand weapon, a two-handed weapon, or anything else).
