Second Black Arrow, Aeglos, Anguirel and Anglachel.

Is Girdle of Melian an item? I am not quite sure...

It is an oddity though so I feel it could/should count.

Gordis is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
I nominate
Morgul Blades,
Barrow-Downs blades and
Grond II

I second
Aranruth, Grond I and Glamdring

I feel Rings are out of place here, somehow. There are so SPECIAL...., they deserve a special game along with Silmarils, Palantiri and such like.

You meant to say "soo preciouss..."

But well, it all seems to come down now whether this will be a round for "weapons" or for "weapons and other oddities"? If it's the latter, we need to come up with a substantial number of other candidates than weapons.

Although I think that the One Ring being there would not be fair to other candidates...

It's true.

Maybe this one should be weapons and armour, and later we could have another one such as powerful objects, e.g. Silmarils, rings, etc.

If we don't have the other one then I nominate:

Tom Bombadil's boots
