I always thought the daggers would come into play when Merry stabs the Witch King and I haven't completely abandoned that idea. I watched closely when Merry does the deed and it's all too fast to see what he's got in his hands. All we need is a scene where Gimli gives the daggers back to Merry & Pippin at Isengard, saying they were found when the searched the orcs carcasses and a close-up of the dagger just before Merry goes for the stab.<P>Hey, it could happen.<P>By the way, why do people think that the swords Merry and Pippin have before being captured by the orcs are Barrow swords? There's nothing saying such in the films. I would assume they are just short-swords that Aragorn picked up in Bree. I would also assume these are lost as Merry seems to get a new sword from the Rohirrim and Pippin clearly gets a new sword from Denethor.<P>H.C.
