Reference:
Sting is a large Elvish dagger in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. It functioned well as a sword for the hobbits Bilbo and Frodo Baggins. Bilbo named the weapon after using it to fend off the giant spiders in Mirkwood forest, then later passed it on to Frodo to use in his quest to destroy the One Ring.

Sting Sword as depicted in the Lord of the Rings film trilogy (directed by Peter Jackson), features a spiral pattern and printed script on both the blade and crossguard that read “Maegnas aen estar nin dagnir in yngyl im”. In case you can’t read Sindarin Elven, this translates to “Sting is my name; I am the spider’s bane.”

The Lord of the Rings is an epic high-fantasy novel by English author and scholar J. R. R. Tolkien. In the Peter Jackson film adaptations Sting was described as specifically glowing blue, like a blue flame. "The blade glows blue when Orcs are close"

Though just a dagger by standard of the Elves, Sting made a perfect short-sword for a Hobbit, although it was still rather small.

The Three Hobbits Who Wielded Sting. These Hobbits were Bilbo Baggins, who with Gandalf, first unearthed it. It was handed down to Frodo Baggins, his nephew. It was also briefly wielded by Samwise Gamgee, Frodo’s gardener.

The design resembles the Ancient Greek xiphos (ξίφος), with a double edged and relatively wide leaf-shaped blade. It was a secondary battlefield weapon for the Greek armies after the dory or javelin.

If you’re more inclined Cosplaying, this replica would be a perfect addition to any character, a nobleman or a soldier.
