The BEST place? Faction farms
The larger, the better. 10 bases in my city and I was able to make 450-500k per hour. Plus you get the added benefit of TONS of faction.. on the order of 10-15k per buff session, and a ton of loot. Lotso of credits and even some good SEAs that you can use or sell. Got myself a Weapons Exp +4 CA that I sold for a nice profit 2-3 days ago. My Swordsman alt is a Zabrak and I was able to pay for an ATST (19900 fp) in as few as 5 hours. Thats with levelling up a few grades so that I could hold that much faction.

I would get buffed, group with a solo group, and kill ER's or Baz Nitches, Dantooine sucks compared to Dathomir as far as good creatures go.

Yeah that faction farm is awesome.... /thanks Iolas and the rest of LSW for inviting us to use it 
Other then that, i would say Dantooine is swordsman heaven. Most creatures there have low blast resist except some of the Bols. I mastered Swordsman in one day from novice brawler last week, get a speed sliced PH and do the speed branch, well get spin attack 2 first then do the speed branch
Huurton huntresses/Stalkers/Matrons give about 4.5-5k xp. Pikets spawn like crazy and you'll see "A Dead Log" quite often.
Dath mobs give the same xp, but Dant is better for the simple fact that player cities and vendors are, for the most part, nearby. If something breaks or gets blown up, you just go buy another. Or hide in a house if you have to run. I know masters don't have to do this, but for teh noob trying to grind, you don't wanna send him to dath right away

I mastered in two days going to different caves.
Fort Tusken
- This place is always packed so I wouldn't waste your time.
Squill Cave
- This is a good place once you get xx32 but this place fills up pretty fast, depending on the server.
Beetle Cave
- Good place too level.Get spin 1 before going here. These are NPC's and pretty easy to kill but I would suggest desent armor and buffs. +2,000 xp per kill and they spawn pretty fast.
Quenkers
- These are good too. Level on these guys until you get at least spin 1 because they are easy and give desent xp.
If you want too make credits doing missions while leveling I would suggest Quenkers. Get yourself a set of Ubese armor. Ubese is cheaper but has good protection against Quenkers. I haven't used Quenkers as a source to level a profession since I did smuggler and that was almost a year ago, stupid holocron made me do it. Anyway, the armor lasted through the whole grind of Smuggler..
Good luck!

I'm grinding swordsman on my toon on Gorath, and I find its best to get huurton stalker or quenker lairs. Im doing both right now with just novice swordsman, a cheap powerhammer, bad buffs, and no armor lol.
