Like you guessed it is a cultural icon. The emperor the united their home world used it.

In Star Trek lore, the Klingon Kahless created the bat’leth around CE 625. According to Klingon mythology, he formed the blade by dropping a length of his hair into some lava from inside the Kri’stak Volcano, then cooling, shaping, and hardening it in the lake of Lursor.[5] He then united Qo’noS, the Klingon homeworld, by killing a tyrant named Molor with the weapon, which became known as the Sword of Kahless.
