I don't understand :- "---what kind of dun age I can pack them with ---"

I solved my problems by closing off a part of a much larger room and making a small storage room that I kept locked, even before this I did not display my keris & etc, but I also didn't keep them locked away. Personally I don't think its necessary to put things into storage, just deny the little dipsticks access.

Thanks, spell correction! The word is dunnage!
My kids are OK, they understand safe firearm handling (and so generally how to respect weapons), as well as the value of old objects and private property. They have friends over who, to use a crude local phrase "don't know horse shit from applesauce", and will and have just snatched one of my keris up, pulled it out of its sheath, handled the blade, tried to resheath it the wrong way and basically made themselves a huge nuisance. Plus, one of them has an older brother who, if you'll forgive me for being so quick to judge, just has that "junkie in training" look that makes me think that the less he knows about my possessions the better.
