Glamdring, Orcrist, and Sting are found. These blades were made by the High Elves of the First Age in Gondolin. Glamdring was the blade used by Turgon, king of Gondolin. Glamdring later became the sword used by Gandalf. Orcrist became the blade used by Thorin, and Sting was Bilbo's sword. Sting was not called Sting when it was made. Bilbo named it that after killing spiders in Mirkwood.
