I know that the weapon is called a sword breaker but I can already foresee the confusion that name will bring. Might I suggest calling it a Sword Trapper instead and, if we end up using a new skill for this instead of using Grapple, calling the new skill Sword Trap?

It's not a bad idea.

Giving a bonus is functionally the same thing as ignoring a penalty.
Small pistols get a bonus to conceal. Rifles have a bunch of ways to ignore range penalties.
If ignoring a penalty is the preferred way to parse it, you could have a sword-breaker ignore the "parrying in a defensive stance" penalty. (Actually that would be a good one to apply to shields.)

I don't think I'll have the ' ignore the "parrying in a defensive stance" penalty.' because that brings us back to the same problem we had before.
