I also think that a weapon would be out.

I mean, if you shed a LOT of your power to an item, you'll want it to be something that is... well... worn and not carried. At least I would. But why not for example a crown?

Sauron certainly did not take into consideration the possibility of the ring getting lost. If he had, he'd not made it.

But for example a crown such as Morgoth forged, would have also been difficult to lose (and harder for Isildur to remove... at least with the method he used [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] .) Also It had had the extra advantage of being more visible as a symbol of power.
