The USS Mihoshi: Security
"Not really my collection," the petite Andorian replied. "I think of two weapons as mine, the ushan'tor on my hip and a sword that I left back home. Both are hand crafted. These," she indicated the weapons on the walls, "I just put together with the industrial replicator, but I assure you that the designs are the finest quality a replicator can produce. They're all fully combat worthy. If you need one, the stud above the bracket releases the magnet.
"Hand to hand combat is not as vital to warfare as it was in times before firearms and phasers, but it's still crucial that we not allow the skill to lapse--especially now that we have seen it's effectiveness against the Borg.
"More importantly, the traditions associated with most of these weapons go far back in each of our cultural histories. These weapons are symbols of the strength and pride of our peoples. Some bare spiritual significance as well. The bat'leth, you may know, was first designed by Khaless at the climax of a spiritual journey to an active volcano. The legend states that he cast a braid of his hair into the volcano, where it became coated in liquefied minerals before an updraft bore it back up from the volcano. It landed in the shape we know today and cooled into a combat ready weapon.
"I want every person on this team, upon entering this chamber, to feel connected to tens of thousands of years of pride, honor, and strength."
