Enkidoh meant the symbolic weapon tied to and worn by a job, not the class / job icon. The icon of DRK symbolizes an arcane magic symbol, not a greatsword.

If you see an axe, it symbolizes WAR / MRD here.
If you see a one-handed sword with a shield, it symbolizes PLD / GLA.
If you see a greatsword(-esque weapon), it symbolizes DRK.

It's the actual aesthetic Enkidoh speaks about.
