Spear of King Bladorthin (spear)

The Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain forged these spears for a king who lived before the Dragon came. Their thrice-forged heads never lose their keenness, and their shafts are inlaid with gold.

The Tower Shields of Dale (great shield)

The soldiers of Girion, the last Lord of Dale before the coming of Smaug, carried great shields that were so tall that it was said that a grown man could completely hide behind them.
