Yes, I would have said that if the WK knew that there were dangerous weapons in the Barrows then he should have ordered someone to clean out all weapons from the Barrows long before.
Even during the time of the War of the Ring there could have been agents allied to Sauron who could have done it, surely, just in case the WK had forgotten about the danger in the meantime.
Or even better, why not just send one of the Nazgul to guard the Barrows?
