None of the 5 Kakaar is out dated as some claim due to having inability to understand their importance.

Remember, Khalsa was created when the society was ruled with tyranny, it was literally a lawless society. Kirpan has been a symbol of power even today its considered a symbol of power. Guru ji didn't add " spear" in five Kakars though  that was more effective from distance. So obviously "kirpan(Sword) represents sybol, of power, it should be kept. Guru Sahib' Hukamname indicate " Guru ji was more interested in arming Sikhs" Today, Sikhs must have arms that are suitable to today's time. No one can be safe any where, genocide can happen anywhere, if concept of being armed is taken in right meaning, it is very useful. Mocking at "kirpan" is nothing but childish mockery. Its should be taken as a symbol and inspiration for self defence and protection of the weak as Guru ji offered. Today  if some one has a problem in wearing them, its fine. Questioning others who wear unnecessarily is not right thing to do. Dr Bhai Sahib Bhai Harbans Lal Ji is a Sehajdhari Gursikh who has contributed a lot in context of Sree Guru Granth Sahib Ji, he never attacked 5 Kakars. This example shows how to be Sikh without beating drums of one's one MONMATT.

You have choice, whatever you have made, it is fine but please respect what others like.

Thanks.
