In response to some of the previous posts, I still don't think that Merry killed the witch king. I don't see how a sword, created by men, can undo the power of a ring of power. I think Merry just stabs the witch king in the knee and Eowyn finishes him off with a blow to the head. If it were otherwise, and all you had to do was stab the witch king with a sword made by the westernesse than he probably would have not been feared so much in the early third age. The point was that he is supposed to be difficult to kill.
