Its not about the weapons it's about the weapon culture. In the LOTR they respected the weapons and their purpose, simple.

I'm not sure how that is different. They had same sort of awe for weapons that a lot of weapon hobbyists do. Hell, I remember reading about/seeing ceremonial and decorative weapons in LOTR.

I'm sure any gun nut will happily tell you how much they respect guns.
