ikir n. (Strong-I Neuter) “short sword, eket/ecet”
A Númenórean short-sword, not too much unlike a roman gladius, though more resemblance has been found with the Viking one-handed swords of yore. Adapted from the primitive elvish root √KIR (“cut, cleave, pass swiftly through; shave; skim (surface), slip along, glide quickly”).
