Talk:Godric Gryffindor's Sword

From Harry Potter Wiki

If Voldemort had made this into a Horcrux, would he technically be forever immortal since the sword cannot be destroyed? 74.245.20.195 01:29, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

The sword cannot be destroyed? Seth Cooper 17:29, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

The sword as been stated to be indestructible, one can only imagine a way to destroy it if it would be turned into a Horcrux (which would give additional magic protection).

It's never specifically stated that the sword is indestructible, only that it "imbibes only that which makes it stronger." Although, Hagrid does at one point refer to a Goblin-made battle helmet as "indestructible", but it's hard to say if he meant it literally. - Nick O'Demus 21:14, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] The Name on the sword

Griphook claims that Godric stole the sword from a goblin leader, but it is inscribed with his name, if the sword never has to be sharpened, i assume you cannnot engrave the blade after it is finished being made, would that not prove it was made for Godric Mando Warrior 16:03, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

The whole issue of the Goblins' perspective of ownership is that the maker is the rightful owner, not the buyer, even if it was made just for them. Even though the sword was made for Gryffindor, the Goblins believe it should have either been returned after he died or further payments should have been made every time it was passed down. - Nick O'Demus 21:14, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

I knew that, i was just wondering why griphook claimed it was stolen from goblins, or did he think it was stealing to pass it on without payment? Mando Warrior 13:40, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
