Running a MTK Swords 4410 template so far and picked up the Improved Armor Break special on the Swordsman side last night. I had the Advanced Armor Break from what I thought was the TK side but now I cannot see the move in the skill listings although the special shows up in my hotkeys.
When I examine the Adv one, the description for Improved pops up from the Abilities page.
When I read the mouseover info for Advanced it says that it is the best armor break to be used although after getting the Swordsman skill (and reading the mouseover for Improved) it says something along the lines that it is the best and I cannot see both specials in my ability page to compare.
Am I making sense or babbling?
Anyways the real question I am getting to is which is really better?

I did find this post whci helped some but confused me more on where the specials come from:
http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=swordsman&message.id=66263&query.id=44091#M66263
So there is an:
Armor Break from Brawler
Advanced Armor Break from Swords lower level
Improved Armor Break from Swords higher level
Any other input...the assumption would be that Improved is the best? Yet I picked up Improved AB with Swords 4410 if I remember (course it was late and I will verify tonight)...

You get the basic Armor Break at Brawler xx4x, then Improved Armor Break at Swordsman xx1x and finally Advanced Armor Break at Swordsman xx3x. Improved is better than basic, and Advanced is better than Improved. Once you get a better version it overwrites the lesser version so you can only use one of them.

Thanks, appreciate the answer. I had read a bit more by this time also and saw some posts stating the better skills overwrite the others. I guess my hotkeys don't update till I remove and re-add the icons and such.
