Glamdring is a fictional sword from J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium, prominently featured in "The Hobbit." It is known as the "Foe-Hammer" and was originally forged for the Elven king Turgon of Gondolin. The sword is characterized by its elegant design and glowing blade, which shines in the presence of orcs. In the story, Gandalf wields Glamdring after finding it in a troll's hoard. The sword serves as a powerful weapon against dark forces, particularly during the adventures of Bilbo Baggins and the company of dwarves. Glamdring symbolizes bravery and the fight against evil in Tolkien's world.
