Give a Viking Axe Made of Cast Steel, Type H, With Engraving and Leather Covering

Viking axe made of cast steel, type H, with engraving and leather sheath



Axes were important tools and weapons in the everyday life of the Vikings. They were used for felling trees, working with wood or fighting. Axe heads were made of different materials such as stone, bone or metal and came in different shapes and sizes depending on their intended use. Many Viking axes were ornately decorated and served not only as practical tools but also as status symbols. Today, Viking axes are popular among collectors and are often used in movies, TV series and video games to convey the image of the fierce and fearless Vikings.



The shape of the head of the Viking axe offered here corresponds to the Petersen type H. The blade of this axe is made of EN45 carbon steel and is engraved with a Nordic-looking motif. The handle of the axe is made of robust ash wood and is wrapped in leather.



This early medieval axe is primarily intended as a collector's item or decorative object. It is also ideal as an accessory, for example to complete your costume, and will make your transformation into a proud warrior simply perfect.
