Like, it’s a fake weapon, badly designed, intended to look cool. But in universe, what’s the history?
There’s multiple ways to give a canon reason a badly designed weapon is such a cultural icon. Maybe it’s based on the horns of a predator, or something like that, as an example.
I’m not a deep delver into such things, but I wonder if there’s an official history behind it.
Is there any canon on the origin of the batleth?

I feel like there must have been a scene between Worf and his son where he explains it.
Probably, though the scene that came to mind for me was from the DS9 episode where Worf, Kor, and Dax find the sword of Kahless.
