Tulwar with a hidden text

Someone recently wrote on a keris forum a thing that made me think a bit. He wrote, and I quote from memory – the discussion was about the symbolic values.

‘If you want to know something about the symbolic value, you have to marry into one of the families which still knows about them, and even then you may not be told all.’

I do think, this tells us, that this knowledge is not easy for us to find, but somehow we will have to find it, to understand the weapons we collect the better.
