ANDURIL
SWORD. THE SWORD OF ARAGORN.
The
Narsil sword, the sword of Anduril are perhaps the most famous swords in
"The Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

Anduril
sword, is the sword grasped by Aragorn in the film The Lord of the Rings
At
the end of the second age of Middle-earth, the blade of the Narsil sword was
shattered, as Elendil fell during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men in the
great battle against Sauron, creating the Shards of Narsil. Isildur,
Elendil's son, then used the broken hilt of Narsil to cut "The One
Ring" from Sauron's finger, breaking the bonds of his power, banishing
his evil shadow into the darkness.
The
Shards were kept in Rivendell, the house of Elrond, for safe keeping. Legend
told that the sword would one day be reforged and the king would return.
In the New Line Cinema film, "The Return of the King", Anduril
sword was reforged from the Shards of Narsil for Aragorn by elvensmiths in
Rivendell. Elrond said of the legendary blade, "The man who can wield
the power of this sword can summon to him an army more deadly than any that
walk this earth."

The
Aduril sword was created from the broken pieces of the Narsil sword
The
inscription down the length of the blade on both sides is in the Tolkien
language of Quenya, written in the runes of Eregion, that say
"N‡ny‘ Andœril i nŽ Narsil i macil Elendilo. Lercuvanten i m‡li
Mord—r‘o". This translates to "I am Andœril who was Narsil,
the sword of Elendil. Let the thralls of Mordor flee me."
The
blade inscription of the Anduril sword features runes framed by stylized
symbols of the Sun and the Moon, which represent An‡rion and Isildur, the
sons of Elendil, and seven symbolic stars that represent Elendil sword, who
died wielding Narsil in battle against Sauron. Inscribed on the pommel are
runes in the Elven language of Sindarin that say "Narsil essenya, macil
meletya; Telchar carneron Navarotesse". This translates to Narsil is my
name, a mighty sword; Telchar made me in Nogrod".
