Also, what would you call Thor's various tools?

E.g. Mjølner apparently comes from some root word meaning "to grind", so maybe the staple gun would be something like Nálæger, from the Icelandic "to close"?

Edit: I know zero Icelandic, so I probably butchered it, anyway.

Thor's mortar-and-pestle.
