Barrow-Blades

The Barrow-Blades, also called Daggers of Númenór or Daggers of Westernesse, were several Arnorian Ekets discovered Tom Bombadil discovered in the Barrow from which he rescued the four young Hobbits following Frodo Baggins. These blades were likely of Cardoladren make, and were possibly noble, military, ir familial property buried with its owner in the Angmar Wars. Regardless of its possible origin, it served as the primary weapons of Samwise Gamgee, Peregrin Took, and Meriadoc Brandybuck during the War of the Ring, though Frodo’s would soon be broken by the Witch-king of Angmar and Samwise would eventually abandon his for Sting. Nonetheless, it was by these blades that the Witch-King was, in fact, slain, due to the combined deeds of Eowyn of Rohan and Meriadoc.
