When Strider set out to look for and to help Frodo, did he know he might have to face the Nazgul?
If he did, he would have known that no ordinary weapon would be of any use against them but the sword that had destroyed their Master at the end of the Second Age might make them pause and buy time for an escape. It would be worth risking such a precious heirloom to get the Ring safely to Rivendell.
