Overview
In Norse mythology, Gambanteinn (Old Norse gambanteinn 'magic wand') appears in two poems in the Poetic Edda.
Hárbarðsljóð
In Hárbarðsljóð stanza 20, Hárbarðr says:
A giant hard was Hlébard, methinks:
His gambanteinn he gave me as gift,
And I stole his wits away.
Skírnismál
In Skírnismál (Stanzas 25 to 26) Skírnir speaks to Gerd:
Seest thou, maiden, this keen, bright sword
That I hold here in my hand?
Before its blade the old giant bends,—
Thy father is doomed to die.
I strike thee, maid, with my gambanteinn,
To tame thee to work my will;
There shalt thou go where never again
The sons of men shall see thee.
