Product description
The axe was an indispensable and versatile tool for the Vikings — used to fell trees, build ships, houses, and furniture, or as a weapon in battle. Axe head shapes and sizes were adapted to their intended use. Some axes were beautifully decorated and served as status symbols, often buried next to their owner. Today, Viking axes are treasured collectibles and show up regularly in movies, TV series, and video games, reinforcing the image of the wild and fearless Vikings. This Viking axe features a Petersen type H head, with a hand-forged blade made from high-quality carbon steel and a sturdy ash wood handle. The axe head is engraved with a historic Viking motif, and the axe comes wrapped in leather. A great gift or addition to any Viking outfit!
