I am uncomfortable with the idea of that staff being so capable regardless of who is its master. I am trying to suss out a hypothesis that suggests that the master is the one who controls it and not the other way around. But now I think of it, that's not so good either. It should be destroyed.

And the Knights may not have been the ones who broke the original staff; maybe they had knowledge that the stick was the only missing piece even that long ago. But it was in the area of our world that is on such consecrated grounds, that is Constantinople, where they somehow stumbled upon the whole mystery of the prophecy; giving almost divine meaning to what they found. They would have set so much store in a prophecy back in those times, that they may have felt compelled to act as they did.
But that was then and this is now. Imo, it would behoove posterity to blast those parts into the vastness of outer space; at least it would take the bad guys millions of light years to gather them all together again.

I don't think the knights were the ones who broke up the staff. I think they just found that stick in the hands of some religious types who had made an icon of it because they saw a piece of wood that could heal and thought, "True Cross."
Omg, the Klingons. Wish we never heard tell of the stupid staff.
The problem with dispersing the pieces of the staff, is that it risks the potential for someone or something to begin reassembling it, just as Zerstorer did. And it would be without anyone's knowledge. So here comes another all powerful monster wielding a cosmic force. All it takes is one entity who can wield a solitary piece, to track down the others. Zerstorer knew where the stick was, just because it was part of the whole. The pieces can't be sent to another dimension because they're bound to this one. And space isn't necessarily an option, (least of which because I don't think any members of team Grimm are likely to join NASA), because the staff reformed itself when Nick took possession. A being with enough power, might be able to draw those pieces back from the vastness of space if he has just one. The staff itself may even seek to reform and return of it's own volition. It does seem to have a bit of a mind of it's own on how it interprets things, based on Nick's trip through time. If it was intended to be used by the Grimm, it may not allow itself to be removed from the equation.
I have come up with a fail-proof way of ridding us of that damnable staff, we'll give it a case of severe termite infestation.
