Agree with Sting as most likely, though writing Bilbo off as 'kinsman of the hero' amuses me. ^_^ Maybe [s]Biter[/s] Orcrist instead? It may have been found by one of the other dwarves before being given to Thorin.
... I've just been reminded that the movies have Legolas taking Orcrist and using it for almost the entirety of B5A, because apparently letting Thorin use his own sword was just too much for Jackson. -_-
