Miló and 'Akoúo are very metalic in their construction which suits Pyrrha's Polarity Semblance nicely allowing her to throw them and retrieve them from afar, causing a boomerang effect. While Ruby's Scythe Cresent Rose is a weapon built around Ruby's Semblance of speed. Moving from enemy to enemy delivering precise and slow yet devestating strikes. Likewise Weiss's Myrtenaster is a rapier which is a weapon based on the wielder moving constantly. Jumping in and out of active confrontation delivering quick precise strikes that lack power and strength like a scythe. It's very situational and artsy just like the glyph that are Weiss's Semblance.

With this in mind we might be able to dissect what someone's Semblance is based on their weapon as it's assumed everyone except Jaune created their own weapon with their Semblance in mind if they knew of it at they time.

I'm not so sure people base their weapon around their Semblance, but they wind up choosing weapons that compliment their semblance naturally. And I think we're going to see strong ties between family's semblances, after all, Ruby's relatives used gun-shythes as well, and there is a precedent for heirloom weapons.
