Hofund

Hofund, often simply referred as the Bifrost Sword, is an Asgardian sword used by Heimdall. It also served as a key to activate the switch that opens the Bifrost Bridge.
== History ==
=== Protector of the Realms ===
Heimdall uses Hofund as a key to open the Bifrost Bridge and transport people across the Nine Realms.
==== Frost Giants Attack ====
While warning Thor, Sif, Loki, and the Warriors Three about his oath to protect Asgard from an invasion as they traveled to Jotunheim, Heimdall placed Hofund in a slot that activated the Bifrost Bridge.
==== Loki Takes the Throne ====
Heimdall used his sword in an attempt to attack Loki, but Loki simply froze him in ice with the Casket of Ancient Winters before the blow could strike. Eventually, he was able to free himself, and he quickly cut down the two Frost Giants who had been left to guard the Bifrost, opening the Bridge for Thor and his friends using Hofund as a key.
== Capabilities ==
Hofund was one of the keys to the Bifrost Bridge. Additionally, Heimdall also used it as an ordinary sword. The blade never needed sharpening.
