הַטְּהוֹרִין שֶׁבָּעֲגָלָה, הָעֹל הַמְצֻפֶּה, כְּנָפַיִם הָעֲשׂוּיוֹת לְנוֹי, וּשְׁפוֹפָרוֹת הַמַּשְׁמִיעוֹת אֶת הַקּוֹל, וְהָאֲבָר שֶׁבְּצַד צַוְּארֵי בְהֵמָה, הַסּוֹבֵב שֶׁל גַּלְגַּל, הַטַּסִּים, וְהַצִּפּוּיִים, וּשְׁאָר כָּל הַמַּסְמְרוֹת, טְהוֹרִין. סַנְדְּלֵי בְהֵמָה שֶׁל מַתָּכוֹת, טְמֵאִין. שֶׁל שַׁעַם, טְהוֹרִין. הַסַּיִף מֵאֵימָתַי מְקַבֵּל טֻמְאָה, מִשֶּׁיְּשׁוּפֶנּוּ. וְהַסַּכִּין, מִשֶּׁיַשְׁחִיזֶנָּה:

The parts of a wagon not subject to impurity: the yoke that is plated [with metal], side-pieces made for ornamentation, tubes that make noise, the lead at the side of the necks of the cattle, the rim of the wheel, the plates and mountings, and all other nails, all of these are pure. Metal shoes for cattle are susceptible to impurity but those made of cork are pure. A sword: when does it become susceptible to impurity? When it has been polished. And a knife? When it has been sharpened.
