In fact the Witch King probably knew about the resilience of Hobbit folk from the capture of Smeagol, and that would explain why the blade was used.

Would the Witch King have realised that Gollum was originally a hobbit, though? (Or of a hobbitlike folk, as Gandalf put it). Even Gollum doesn't identify with other hobbits as being of his own kind.
