You gave us two categories: an object that was meant to be used and 
then objects that were never meant to be used or found and therefore 
this type has additional protections. Which category would this put 
the sword in, if indeed it's a horcrux? It's confusing because I 
find it very difficult to think of Harry offing the basilisk with a 
weapon that contains part of LV's soul. Are there any other possible 
Gryffindor objects?
