Barrow-blades

item

Elegant leaf-shaped blades of ancient Dúnedain make, wrought from strange metal that defies rust and time. The surfaces feature intricate red-and-gold serpent damascening that catches the light, with fiery stones set into the hilts, giving them a marvellous and glittering appearance. They function as swords for hobbits yet are carried discreetly, serving as both weapons and relics preserved by spell or sheath virtue.
