** It’s a focus phrase. In order to summon the armor and sword, Jim needs to focus his emotions and thoughts on doing so. Odds are he doesn’t need to use the incantation at all for it to work (and in fact he’s shown both summoning them without saying the phrase as well as saying the phrase and not summoning them), but concentrating the way he needs to while in a dangerous or distracting situation can be challenging so reciting part or the whole thing out loud helps him do that.

*** Unfortunately, I must disagree with this a bit. The first time he loses it—when it’s stolen by the gnome—Jim does try to summon it back, and that’s what prompts the explanation from Blinky that the amulet won’t return if it’s stolen.

*** From Wiki/TheOtherWiki: ''"Initially the concept of the armor was that it should feel somewhat bulky on Jim, as it was not meant to be worn by a human, representing Jim's struggle with his sense of responsibility of being a Trollhunter. That idea, however, negated the concept of the armor being its own magical being that adapts to its wearer. The armor itself is a character. We decided to streamline the concept and make it fit as much like a second skin on Jim as possible."'' Basically, it might be purely symbolic: Because skin can heal itself, so can Jim's armour. But the sword isn't "skin", sooo... Adding to this, there's nothing to really... Suggest the sword can repair itself. If it were shattered then stored in the amulet, it would still be in pieces.

*** Well then there's your answer: It is not only made up of magic, but Daylight. Daylight is a fictional ore. Assuming reparation of the armour can be done with the amulet, said armour is not made up of Daylight.
