Judging by what i usualy observe, the application of stars (asteriscs) has a more esthectical than punctuation sense ... i don't know.
Assuming that the wording in the blade is a motto, like those often appearing in navajas, a few allegories may extracted from this one.
The verb 'Aterrar' may also be interpreted as demolishing, burying, cover with earth, frightening ...
So from here you can speculate on various forms, like:
Tell me and i bury.
Tell me and i strike.
Tell me and i knock down.
How's that for an approach ?
