Best Way To Write Younger Futhark's Kaun and Þurs?

Question (general)

Does anyone know what the best way to write out the Younger Futhark ᚴ (kaun) and ᚦ (Þurs or thurs)? I'm trying to find the best way to write out the goddess name Skađi that's not just the unicode symbols but how it was historically written or carved.

Would the Kaun have a curved or straight stem when written and would the thurs be pointed or rounded?
