Many historical butterfly sword were actually closer to short sword length rather than the more big-knife size that is used today.

seeing as they're more or less machetes with handguards i've always thought they'd be good with practical technique ie: not the flippy dippy wushu shit that is more dance than anything but actual "this is how you fuck someone's day with this thing"

Spoken like a true imbussil. Martial arts is just dancing everybody. Not time and battle tested techniques that focus on agility, patience, and discipline! Just dancing. Bruce Lee would just ballroom dance in a boxing ring as someone fucked his day.

Terrible design, how the hell is a butterfly going to lift one of those things.

>Not time and battle tested techniques
Correct. Wushu is not tested by time or battle, which is why it bears no resemblance to martial arts that are. Which, incidentally, are all absurdly similar to each other.
