Viking Axe: A Relic from the Age of Legends

Journey back to the age of the Vikings, a time when the echoing clash of battle resonated through the fjords, with our heavy-duty Viking Axe. Spanning a formidable 21", and equipped with a 6" ax head, this tool is crafted not only to exude the majesty of the Viking era but to stand the test of time and the rigors of battle.

Used as both a tool and a weapon, the Viking axe was a staple for Scandinavians during the era of raids and exploration. With its sturdy build, it stands as a testament to the fierce and exploratory spirit of the Vikings.

Unmatched Blade Craftsmanship:

The heart of our Viking Axe lies in its blade. Forged from 1095 steel, renowned for its exceptional carbon content, this blade surpasses many of its counterparts, like the 1045 steel, in both hardness and durability. It boasts a Rockwell hardness of 56-58 HRC, ensuring a sharp edge that remains intact even after rigorous use.

However, a true blade doesn't just rely on its sharpness. Understanding the need for flexibility in battle, this axe undergoes a unique clay tempering process. By insulating specific sections of the blade during quenching, this technique ensures the blade’s body retains flexibility, while its edge remains razor-sharp.

Key Specifications:

  • Overall Length: 21" - perfect for both utility and display.
  • Handle: Crafted from robust wood ensuring a firm grip.
  • Sheath: A hand-stitched leather sheath that complements the axe's raw power with elegance.
  • Blade Material: High-carbon 1095 steel, ensuring a sharp edge and incredible durability.

Estimated Shipping Transit: 3–7 Days
