Check this out from the Shambhala Dictionary of Buddhism and Zen :
"In Tibetan Buddhism great scholars are considered incarnations of Manjushri . Homage is frequently made to Manjushri... at the beginning of philosophical texts ... . He is thus the symbol for the experience of enlightenment as manifested in intellectual exposition ."
"His attributes --- a Sword and the Prajnaparamita. These attributes stand for the Wisdom embodied by Manjushri, which dispels the darkness of Ignorance ." {Here, the Sword CUTS Ignorance} .
"Uhh Houston ? All systems are nominal ."
