I’m trying to make both hands have different reactions on the sword by pulling each arm joints in opposite directions making both arm having equal pull, but every time I parent each joint to the swords bones, only one arm will have the swords bone. If this make since Id be grateful for any help.

. I’m not sure if the picture shows in the post but what I’m looking for is to have the modeled Hands attached to the sword then by moving the sword having the hand’s move with it, or by moving the hand’s making the sword move. Every time I parent the bones to the sword I lose the first parenting on the other hand user added image
