Some weird details in this saga. During a dramatic chase scene, one party rides past two quarreling laborers who are engaged in a knife fight, because this is totally something that happens: "Þorvarð hét maðr, er bjó í Holti. Húskarlar hans deildu um verk ok hjuggusk með ljám ok varð hvárttveggi sárr; kemr Vésteinn til ok sættir þá ok gørir svá, at hvárumtveggjum hugnar vel."
