It's pretty funny that they missed something that simple
We do not know if it even is concidered a glitch actually.
It would just be annoying if it puts away your sword and cancels the shielding and stuff because you swap sword.
And it would just be odd if it swapped instantly.
It does feel a bit odd though.
By the way
http://www.jaytheham.com/zcw/Ocarina_of_Time_3DS_-_Armed_LinkThis is possible with epona and fishing rod on B (just pay to start fishing)
Also, this works with any item on B. so if you use bottle adventure to get any other item on B, that will work aswell.
It works with all savefiles, you can even swap between masterquest and standard. You can do the first two steps on one of them, and then create a new file on the other.
And the glitch is called NewGame Plus (NG+ for short). It is a generic name, yes, but it is pretty much what the glitch is, and it will have its own speedrun category named after it. :3

That was the second thing I confirmed in the IRC after aleckermit found the restricted item glitch. I confirmed it along with stealing the rod with farore's wind.
Note that this swordless is a "bad" swordless. It does not contribute in giving you deku stick on B, but that could be because I didn't bother messing around with it at all. Anyway, the currently only known ways to get deku stick on B is by getting disabled B, a new status on the B button. You will still have the sword icon on B, but it is grayed out and does not function. It is when the B button is in this state that you can start doing the deku stick on B methods :3
That is all though.

By the way, it IS possible to clip through some things by getting damaged the frame you are inside of a wall.
I did it once before using triple slash combined with the burning stones falling down on you while escaping ganons castle, all I achieved was falling into the void though...

I found an fast and simple way to do the hookshot clip without having to aim down. Sometimes you're even able to aim up-left.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybgo3RQy3BUThe clip in itself is not something new, greenalink confirmed that it worked already.
However, this will make it possible for us to fast and easily setup a clip without any problem at all.
I have noticed that when I mash the L button instead of just pressing it once, the chance of being able to clip up-left increases.
This works with any wall, it clips through a normal door without any issues.
It should for example allow you to easily clip through any of the cells in fire temple.
