Viking Bearded Hand Axe – 19″ Damascus Steel with Spike Poll

A powerful blend of Norse inspiration and modern craftsmanship, this 19-inch Viking Bearded Hand Axe draws from traditional Scandinavian axe forms while incorporating contemporary design elements. Featuring a bearded Damascus steel axe head, a carved wooden handle, and a spike-back poll, this piece is built for visual impact, control, and versatility—ideal for collectors, display, and light functional use.

Axe Inspired by Norse Warriors

Bearded axes were a favored tool of Viking-age warriors and craftsmen, valued for their ability to deliver controlled, powerful cuts while allowing the user to choke up on the handle for precision work. Unlike large two-handed Dane axes, this compact, one-handed design reflects the size and handling of axes commonly carried on Viking longships and used in close combat, camp tasks, and daily survival.

The extended lower blade—known as the beard—offers increased cutting reach and control, while the modern spike poll adds an aggressive aesthetic and secondary striking point not typically found on historical originals.

Hand-Forged Damascus Steel Axe Head

The axe head is crafted from Damascus steel, showcasing distinctive layered patterning created through repeated folding and forging. This process produces:

• Excellent edge durability and sharpness

• Unique, one-of-a-kind steel patterns on every piece

• A strong cutting edge suitable for light chopping, woodcraft, and display

Carved Wooden Handle with Wrapped Grip

The wooden haft is hand-carved for comfort and balance, blending traditional styling with practical ergonomics.

• Ergonomic curvature for secure one-handed use

• Wrapped grip sections for added control and stability

• Durable wood construction designed for balance and handling
