The Saxon name arises from the Seax.
A culture is always patronized and subsidized, look at woke capitalism.

In Sikhi, to view the [sargun, physical] form of Akal Purkh you can look towards Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as well as Saints. Like this to the [sargun] form of Bhagvati [Devi/Chandi, Goddess] view weapons [shastar and astar, melee and missile].
Weapons are the physical form of the Goddess.
Not really worried, and been carrying a 3ft Kirpan for years.
Need to/supposed to carry a missile weapon as well - thinking a sling?

Government doesn't allow what it cannot stop.
Open carry of non-restricted is already legal.
In addition, to 5 K's there are also 5 weapons which includes firearms.
Singhs carry rifles to the Gurudawara, and a Sword alone is boring..
