| | Anguirel - Tolkien Gateway |
 | | Anguirel ('Living Star-iron'; ang = iron, el = star, guin = live) was one of a pair of iron-cutting swords forged by Eöl, the Dark Elf, from an iron meteorite. |
 | | Anguirel's mate was Anglachel, which Eöl gave to Thingol in payment for leave to dwell in Nan Elmoth, and that sword went on to perform many mighty deeds - reforged as Gurthang, it was the sword that Túrin used to kill Glaurung. |
 | | The only specific detail we have is that Eöl kept it for himself, but it was stolen by his son Maeglin. |
