"Hunt" refers to Ichigo's inner Hollow, which is always eager for a fight and "Protect" indicates the more reserved old man; his Quincy powers. Well, I doubt he is trying to protect his enemies, if you know what I mean...

I'm going with the idea that one sword is primarily used for attacks (Hunt) and the other sword is primarily used for defense (Protect); so the defensive weapon would naturally protect Ichigo and not his enemies. ;P
