Product description

The axe was an indispensable and versatile tool for the Vikings, whether used for felling trees, building ships, houses, and furniture, or as a weapon in combat. The shape and size of the axe heads were adapted to their intended use. Some axes were beautifully decorated, serving as status symbols and often buried alongside their owner.

This type of axe head is classified as Petersen Type G. The neck is slender, often with flat sides, while the back of the blade is relatively thin. The blade is symmetrical and more curved than Type A. This type of axe was likely developed for warfare and was in use from approximately 800 to 950 AD.

This replica axe features a hand-forged blade made of high-quality carbon steel and a sturdy ash wood handle.
