As to whether Eowyn had beaten Aragorn...I really doubt that a warrior with at least sixty years experience, arguably the finest swordsman of his time, could be bested by a twenty four year old girl. I think he was just playing with her.

Dang. He was playing a pretty dangerous game, then, and I think he lost.

Exactly! Just like Gandalf, lying prone on the floor, staffless, was just toying with the Witch-King. Remember, my pretties, this is Peter Jackson's universe, and sixty years of experience may have lost it all to one foolish misstep. And, from experience, there was a time as a bachelor when the presence of the female kind increased my stupidity quotient exponentially, decreased my dexterity and dropped my charisma by 5 points.

And regarding knives and princesses, there's that at the end of this post.
