[7] Kaldhamarsnautr (m.) ‘Kaldhamarr’s gift’: A sword-heiti (see Bjhít Lv 20/6^V (BjH 30), where this word denotes a sword). Finnur Jónsson (LP: Kaldhamarsnautr) takes Kaldhamarr as a pers. n. and argues that the heiti means ‘the gift of Kaldhamarr’, an explanation which is supported by other compounds with ‑nautr as the second element (see Note to l. 2 above, and adopted in Skj B, Skald, SnE 1998 and in the present edn). Bugge (1875, 231) identifies this Kaldhamarr as Kaldamarr (or rather Kaldimarr, changed by analogy with Valdimarr), a champion whom Bjǫrn Hítdœlakappi Arngeirsson defeated at the court of the Russian king Valdimarr (BjH ch. 4, ÍF 3, 120-2). If so, Kaldhamarsnautr (< Kaldamarsnautr) is most likely to be another name for Bjǫrn’s sword Mæringr, previously owned by Kaldimarr (Mæringr is not included in the present list). According to Falk (1914b, 53), the first element of the cpd is derived from the weak verb kaldhamra ‘hammer iron cold’ and hence ‘a product of cold hammering’, which is unlikely given the established pattern of compounds in which a pers. n. is coupled with the noun ‑nautr.
