Durin's Axe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Durin's Axe is a fictional weapon from J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium.

It was a great heirloom of the Dwarves of the Durin's folk. It was the axe of Durin I, the father of the Longbeard Dwarves.

It remained in Khazad-dûm after it was deserted in the 1981 year of the Third Age. In 2989 T.A. it was found again by Balin's expedition, and lost again in 2994, when the Dwarf-colony was destroyed.
