[4] þinurr: ‘pínurr’ B
[4] þinurr (m.) ‘fir’: The name of a type of fir-tree, ModIcel. þinur ‘fir’ (Abies; see Þul Viðar 3/4), metaphorically used of a bow made of the wood of this tree (cf. New Norw. tinar ‘hard area in fir or spruce wood’). According to Falk (1914b, 64), the term could denote a sword’s flexibility and firmness, but it is more likely a base-word in a sword-kenning (Meissner 152). The heiti is not attested in poetry.
