Hand-Forged Viking Bearded Axe Head – Norse Skeggøx Battle Axe

Description

Embrace the world of the Northmen with this authentic Viking bearded axe head, a weapon that once symbolized both survival and power. Known as the Skeggøx (beard axe) in Old Norse, its iconic extended lower blade allowed warriors to hook shields, pull enemies off balance, and deliver devastating strikes.

This axe head has been hand-forged from carbon steel, ensuring every piece carries the individuality and strength that defined Viking craftsmanship. Unlike mass-produced replicas, no two axe heads are completely alike, each one is steeped in its own unique character. The cutting edge is blunted, making it safe and ideal for battle reenactments, stage combat, and LARP events, while still capturing the essence of a true weapon of war.

The surface evokes the look of a battle-worn tool straight from the forges of a Norse village. Whether you’re a reenactor, collector, or Viking enthusiast, this Viking Bearded Axe Head is a perfect blend of authentic design, durability, and historical charm.
