Also consider that matadors work their way up from being picadors and/or banderilleros. The former gives them Riding and Spear skill, the latter Knife.
All should have Performance.

I wouldn't recommend that approach. Professional skills in GURPS never include weapon/combat skills; Soldier, for example, doesn't include Shield, Spear, Shortsword, Lance, Polearm, or any specialty of Guns. So you would have to take at least Broadsword, Cloak, and Karate, and on your accounting also Spear (or Lance?) and Knife. You don't get much simplification if you still have to buy those skills.
