You'd think I could? I'm just curious, that's all.

Practice indoors alone for a while or you'll end up looking like this

While dual wielding may look cool it's extremely inefficient and unpractical unless you're a master of the art. And I do mean master as in years of training. So no I don't think you could at all.
If I was more awake I'd find actual article detailing why it's so inefficient but it's 4:44am and I can't sleep so I'll leave it as that.

I don't follow. Its pretty practical in Mabinogi and Vindictus.

Its because he has four arms that he's able to twirl those lightsabers around, I guess.

I'm very confused by that aspect. Wouldn't he be cutting off his own arms?

Like the poster before me said you're confusing reality and real life. If you're asking if you could do it you clearly don't have the training to do it. Technically something like a sword/main gauche combo is more realistic than dual swords of the same size. Usually the off hand weapon is used to parry attacks by deflecting them or even trapping the opponent weapon with it.
So basically in almost every case the second weapon is ALWAYS smaller than the first, and most often always used as defense rather than offense.

If you absolutely want more information.

Dual weilding Twin Dagger-chains is fun through.

I know that's not possible. Something from an animated series isn't so easy to mimic.
