If nothing else, Barehanded is worth learning for everyone. Some abilities (like Barehanded) raise one of the stats of the equipped character, but don't actually mention that they do. In Barehanded's case, it raises the character's Strength to be the same as a Monk, which is tied for highest strength of any class.
Also worth noting along this line: When you're a Freelancer (and I think Mime), passive skills like Barehanded are automatically given to you; you don't need to equip them. Thusly, once you have a fair amount of those, freelancer/mime become the strongest classes in the game. However you should avoid using them because you don't get points toward mastering any new skills.
