Orcrist Sword of Thorin Description:

Orcrist Sword, also known as the “Goblin Cleaver,” is perhaps the most popular weapon in “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.” Orcrist is a Sindarin word for “Goblin-cleaver.” This term relates to the Quenyan rista, which means (“to cut”). The Orcs called it “Biter.” The Elves of Gondolin named it the “Orcrist” for hundred of Orcs killed by the weapon. The prop itself created by Elves of Gondolin, which added value to it and made it one of the most feared and dangerous weapons in the universe. The arch enemies of the elves, the Orcs, who lived in the middle earth like other evil creatures, particularly feared it. The weapon was also widely known as the Sword of Thorin when claimed by the latter.

Orcrist Sword was also a combat weapon borne by the highest of the highest-ranking, possibly a Lord in the entourage of King. It refers to the ” blade that sliced a thousand necks” by the Great Goblins because of its wrath some history. Ecthelion, too, was one of the yielders of this Thorin sword. Known as the “Lord of Fountains court,” he killed many orcs in the Fall of Gondolin.

Both the Orcrist and Glamdrig were lost and exiled from Beleriand 43 years after Gondolin’s fall and before the first age ended. These years explains how Orcs know and feared Biter and Beater( apparent during the capture of Thorin and company). The Sword ultimately fell onto hands of trolls; Tom, Bert, and William in the Ettenmoors by the period of events of The Hobbit.
