Glamdring - Foe Hammer - The GREATEST sword in Middle Earth
Рет қаралды 5,178
Жыл бұрынTaking a look at the history of Gandalfs sword Glamdring, Foe Hammer, The Greatest Sword in Middle Earth. I saw a video today by Adam Savage looking at Glamdring so had to dig out my sword from United Cutlery. I am currently working on building some terrain based around Middle Earth SBG, but it is quite an involved and complicated project so when I got home from the pub last night I decided to make a quick "Lore" video based around one of my favourite possessions!
Check out Adam Savages @tested video here - • Adam Savage Meets Gand...

At the age of like six, I really wanted to have the sword and any wooden sword I got around that time was basically this sword in my imagination. Whenever I come over to your house I still to this day think that it the coolest object in anyone's house. Strange to think that this sword is older than I am. Wicked sword, may have to think about adding it into my build for my product design GCSE. :)

Thats so cool Aisling!! That might be really cool including it in your design... how is the project going??

@@Nat1videos it's going well but we haven't properly started production of our products yet, just started our initial design ideas which I need to finish this week before school starts again next week. We'll probably start making/designing on CAD/CAM in 2-3 weeks. :)

Sweet vid, love the lore too. I suggest you keep your sword in your troll cave, seems like the safest place. Guarunteed 6,000 years insured safety (just look out for the Gandalf Clause in the small print)

Gandalf: 'swords are no more use here!' 1min later... Also Gandalf: uses Glamdring to shatter the balrogs blade into smithereens. That was pretty useful😅

An idea on the display of your sword, how about you build the case like you mentioned, but incorporate the diorama you are building? The sword and presumably your favourite scene in the same case.

Thats a great idea, but this Diorama is quite big... haha

Glamdring was a great sword but Narsil had a far greater lineage. They were both created during the First Age around the same time, Glamdring by the elves and Narsil by Telchar the dwarf, greatest weapons smith to ever live. Narsil was around 6,500 years old when Aragorn became King.

That's so awesome, this would definitely be my most prized possession. Jealous! Just fyi I believe the name "Foe-hammer" translates directly to Glamdring in an elvish language - the orcs named the sword "Beater" (sorry to be that guy).
