Aimin' to Misbehave
Basically, the hitbox on Link's body and at the edge of his sword will spike. The problem is the hitbox on Link's body is REALLY hard to hit with, and the last hitobx is tiny, and if you touch the opponent with that hitbox AND one of the hitbox in the middle of the sword, it will hit them up instead.
tl;dr version - it only spikes if it hits with Link's body or the VERY tip of the sword.
