The head is relatively light due to the thin steel but has a large surface area. This is the classic Dane axe, which began appearing in larger numbers around 950 AD. It was used by elite warriors, such as huscarls, and was especially effective for attacking cavalry and breaking shield walls. Type M heads have been found across Scandinavia, England, and Eastern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"659\" data-end=\"1156\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThis Viking axe is based on early medieval originals and examples used in series such as \u003cem data-start=\"748\" data-end=\"757\"\u003eVikings\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem data-start=\"762\" data-end=\"780\"\u003eThe Last Kingdom\u003c\/em\u003e.
