Dagger Battle Stomp?
The icon and flavor of the skill suggests that this wouldn't work with Dual Daggers. Since I seem to have become the CC bot for the group (Battering Ram, Chloroform, Petrifying Touch) I might as well dive into it, and add another physical disable to the list.

I just want to make sure I won't be wasting the parties gold.

Works fine. Backstabs too. So will whirlwind. Battering Ram will not backstab. Nor will Chloroform or petrifying touch.

You can demo any skill outside battle and save->reload if the cheap tome will break bank

Oh, and while we're at it... can skill bonuses from armor allow you to use skills? So, if a friend has no points in Warfare, but I give him a +Warfare chest piece, will he be able to learn and use Battering Ram / Battle Stomp?

You won't be able to learn the skill from books until you meet minimum requisites. You will however be able to equip the skill if you meet minimum requisites with equipment bonuses. This may seem like an odd distinction but respec is available pretty early on.

If you have, 1 warfare. And you have a skill that requires 2 warfare. You can wear a piece of armor with +1 warfare which will take you to 2warfare. This meets the requirements of learning/using the skill.

If you have a piece of gear with xxxx ability. Lets use Migo's ring as an example, which gives you the restoration ability.
You do not need any points in hydro to use the skill.
Another example... teleportation gloves.
skill requires 2aero, if its from the gloves you can simply use right away even with 0 aero.

Was bothering me --- I double checked just now and I'm going to correct my earlier statement - You CAN learn skills with gear bonuses. Just tested it right now with +1 hydro gear on a 0 hydro character.

Welp, could have sworn that I was denied learning a skill for not meeting hard requisites earlier but clearly that memory is wrong.

It is possible the skill you were trying to learn was something like mixed skill book.
Something like "throw dust" requires 1geo and 1huntsman. lacking on one of those will cause failure.
Or it was a higher teir than what your current skill level in that school is.
