The gauntlet from Camelot was said to find someone's greatest weakness, which more most people are the thing they love most. But couldn't the gauntlet have brought Belle to the real dagger since it was the Dark One's greatest weakness. Not that I don't think Rumple didn't want his power, but Rumple has been trying to free himself of his dagger because it is his weakness. Belle concludes that he must have loved his power the most rather than the dagger being his weakness. As I see it, Rumple's greatest weakness should always be his dagger since his dagger can control and even kill him.
