The volume is bound in patterned brown leather, somewhat worn, with two holes on both the front and the back cover where originally some sort of fastening would have been, although nothing remains of it. On the spine there is a white paper label, upon which has been written "11. Hervarar saga." The manuscript is clearly made up of 9 quires which are coming off the binding. A parchment leaf, apparently medieval and bearing Greek script in black and red ink, has been used as a strip in attaching the quires to the boards.
