Hadhafang is a sword used by Arwen, daughter of Elrond. According to the movie trilogy's official publicity material, Hadhafang once belonged to the Elven Princess Idril, who wed a mortal man (Tuor) and bore Erendil, the father of Elrond, who in turn was father to Arwen.
Before Arwen's birth, Elrond wielded Hadhafang at the end of the Second Age of Middle-earth, during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men in the great battle against Sauron on the slopes of Mount Doom. Later his daughter, Arwen, used Hadhafang when she aided Frodo in his escape from the Ringwraiths.
Inscribed on the blade are Cirth (runes) in Sindarin that say, Aen estar Hadhafang i chathol hen, thand arod dan i thang an i arwen. This translates to, "This blade is called Hadhafang, a noble defense against the enemy throng for a noble lady." (In Sindarin, "Arwen" actually means "noble (or royal) woman").
