Tenhle meč jsem si vyráběl pro sebe. Dělal jsem vše kromě čepele. Rukojeť je vyrobena z losího parohu a rohoviny, zdobena jednoduchou řezbou. Záštita a hlavice jsou z měkké oceli, zdobené tausií s motivem svastik podle meče uloženého v Stockholmu. Pochva je z lipového dřeva, potažená mozkem činěnou jelenicí. Na pochvě je poutko k zavěšení vyřezané z losího parohu. Obústek a kování řemene pochvy jsou z mosazi.
I made this sword for myself. I made everything on it except the blade. Handle is made of moose antler and horn, slightly carved with ornaments. Guard and pommel are from mild steel wit silver inlays with swastika motives. Its styled after the piece in Stockholm museum. Scabbard is carved from linden wood, covered with brain tanned stag leather. On the front side there is mount of elk antler. Mouth, buckle and belt end are made of brass
