Product description
This Viking throwing axe is a replica of several historical originals. The axe head is classified as a Petersen Type A. Blades of this type were slender, possibly developed originally for woodworking, but also used in warfare. This type of axe was likely made between 800 and 850 AD, though some sources suggest it remained in use until as late as 1050 AD.
This throwing axe is fully functional and built to last. Made from carbon steel with a hardness of 52 HRC, the axe head has been antiqued to look authentically aged, closely resembling the originals.
The axe features a hardwood handle and measures 44.5 cm in length. The blade is 8.2 cm long, and the axe weighs 567 grams.
