This is 4 swords, all attached to a single handle and facing in single direction. It is a quadro-weapon.

Quadro weapons. A character can fight with all ends of a quadro weapon as if fighting with many weapons, but he or she incurs all the normal attack penalties associated with two-weapon combat, just as though the character were wielding a one-handed weapon and lots of light weapons. Unlike two-handed weapons, you do one attack with each end of quadro weapon - cue more than 2 attacks.

The character can also choose to use a quadro weapon two handed, attacking with only one end of it. A creature wielding a quadro weapon in one hand can’t use it as a quadro weapon—only one end of the weapon can be used in any given round.
