Gandalf had Turgon's sword they got it in the hobbit off the trolls. Thorin had its mate orcrist which is buried at the bottom of the lonely mountain. It's name is Glamdring.

So how does Turgon's sword happen to be in a troll hole in the Third Age. Also who's sword was Orcrist?

It probably got stolen from a plunder of the city of Gondolin as the goblins wouldn't have gone near it so they probably got stolen and then carries off into the east and got stolen again and again until it came to the trolls. I would say that Tour had orcrist as it cleaved lots of goblin and tour was a mighty warrior or maybe maeglin or ecethion, glorfindel but i would say tour.

Elrond says Orcrist was a famous blade. Wouldn't it be cool if it was Ecthelion's who slew Gothmog? :) Maybe they were both made in Valinor?? before the Noldor left?

I think they were made in gondolin by a smith at the height of her/his power. Maybe Maeglin.
