Introduction:​
I give you Sǫg Tǫnn (Saw Tooth) - forged in honor of the innumerable abandoned wood mills scattered around the country, left to rot as their purpose has been served long ago.
How many a farm has been made possible due to the many-toothed high carbon blades - spinning tirelessly day and night, through summer and winter?
How many noble trees has met their end at the sawblade's edge in order to fulfill an even higher purpose of keeping man and livestock dry and warm?
Hail to you, old saw-mills covered in moss, with leaking tiled roofs and rotting support beams. Your legs may finally give in underneath you, but I shall pick you up and breathe new life into you!
I cannot like Odin, Vili and Vé give you spirit, movement, mind or intelligence - but I can give you shape and purpose!
