UI: What does the number in front of the horizontal progress bar on each skill signify?

One of my avatars has a "character level" of 6. On his Skills panel for One Hand & Shield, underneath the title at the upper right, there is a horizontal progress bar which has a number in front of it that, I suppose, is the "skill level" for using a one-handed weapon and a shield. It currently reads "9".
What significance does the "skill level" have?? In my experience so far, attempting to equip a weapon that has a level higher than the avatar's current character level has always failed. That happens with armor, too.
Thank-you for your time and attention to this inquiry.

✭The "skill line level" is what opens up the various active and passive skills for you to put points into. For instance, a given active skill in a weapon line opens up at skill line level 2, 6, 14, 20, etc. The passives open up at various points as well.
