Dang that short editing window! If there was only one thing that I could change in the forums, that would be it.
The Hobbit does furnish us with some evidence for long-lived Orcs. There is Bolg, as previously mentioned. And then there is the Great Goblin who instantly recognized Thorin's sword Orcrist (though I have no idea when the Goblin-chief might have encountered the blade; the other goblins might have guessed at the identities of both Orcrist and Glamdring from legend and from their glow). Unfortunately we can only guess at the recent history of the blades of Gondolin that brought them to a Troll-hoard. Perhaps they were lost during the fall of Arthedain or the defeat of Angmar.
