The Sling of the Thain This sling was crafted by Faramir I, Thain of the Shire, just in case the nasties of his father's stories ever dare to enter the Shire again. The Sling of Farmer Maggot This ordinary seeming leather sling has been raised to legendary status amongst generations of hobbit children.

It never failed to be found unharmed, until it broke when Beleg fell upon it while he was carrying Turin Turambar away from an Orc-camp, the night Beleg met his end. Turin remade the bolt and kept it to his dying day in memory of his friend. The Metal Boomerang of Beor Beor's boomerang makes its wielder as agile as the winds, and as hard to harm. The Metal Boomerang 'Glimdrir' A powerful boomerang that makes one agile and fast, with a thirst for evil and undead creatures, but demands its wielder not teleport, for fear of desertion.
