The successor of Buster Sword was used in “Advent Children”:

We all know that Cloud Strife of Final Fantasy is well-known for his Butser Sword. It was his primary weapon that he used in all battles for knocking down his enemies. But in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, he was seen with a different sword. Although it looks like Buster sword, it wasn’t actually. If you think that Advent Children Sword was the upgraded version of Buster, then you are also wrong.

Indeed, it was a Fusion Sword that was different than that of previous versions of Cloud’s swords. The designers of Final Fantasy made Fusion Sword by keeping the interest of people in mind. Luckily, people were attracted towards the new design, and all efforts of designers were succeeded.

If you are a diehard fan of Cloud Strife and Zack, then you might have noticed that Cloud embedded the Buster Sword at the same point where Zack made his last standing. The Buster Sword has a rich history with Zack Fair. In the past, Buster Sword was also under the possession of Zack Fair.
Due to this, the producers of this game decided to give a recall to Zack’s era with the act of placing the sword at the same cliff where Zack made his last stand. After that, the blade gets covered with the dust and rust over time. This fact is still unknown to most of the Final Fantasy lovers.

Buster Sword in FFX is a dummied-out sword:

Final Fantasy X is one of the phenomenal fighting games of the FF series in the world. Due to the fantastic characters and innovative moves of this game, it is loved in all parts of the world. I am not here to discuss the quality of this game. Instead, I am here to talk about the dummied-out weapon from a final product.

Hackers somehow succeeded to uncover a model of Buster Sword that can be used by the Tidus (character) in the game. According to the game developers, Buster sword was placed at a specific position as a sort of remembrance to FFVII, but hackers were able to uncover it for the user of Tidus. 

“A Massive Kitchen Knife,” said Tetsuya Nomura:

All the fans of Final Fantasy know that the Buster Sword is a gigantic sword in size and carrying it properly is very difficult. It was designed by the Tetsuya Nomura, who is the leading character designer of Final Fantasy. With his immense and creative skills, he designed Cloud, Sephiroth and other main characters along with their swords.
When he started to create Buster Sword, he idealized a mega kitchen knife. He developed a buster sword with his pure creative skills and according to his 100% idealization powers. Tetsuya Norma called it “A Massive Kitchen Knife.”
