Chinese Broadswords

Would it be cool to do a butterfly twist while holding a chinese broadsword in each hand?
I have been tinkering and playing with my dual broadsword form for the last 3 years that I have created and sculped to what it is today. I am at a point in the form where I don’t know where to go that will make it look good, so I am considering putting a butterfly twist into the form while I am holding a broadsword in each hand. I have done it just for show a couple of times, but never in the form. What do you think?
As a swordsman, I say this would get you killed.
This butterfly twist woudl involve making wide motions that would be easily intercepted by an opponent, and if he is using even one blade, you will be in a world of hurt.
Effective swordsmanship isn’t pretty. It’s quick, simple, brutal and directly to the point.
