Description
Wield the spirit of the North with this hand-forged Viking Bearded Axe, a weapon born from the age of sagas and sea kings. Forged in carbon steel, its broad, beard-shaped blade embodies both artistry and ferocity—perfect for striking, hooking, carving, and even wrenching aside an enemy’s shield in the heat of battle.
The solid hardwood shaft offers natural balance and shock absorption, just as the Norse smiths intended. Standing at nearly 31 inches in length, it grants formidable reach and leverage, while subtle hammer marks across the steel reveal its raw, handmade character—each axe as unique as the warrior who carries it.
Fitted with a traditional wedge-and-pin method, this axe echoes the techniques of Viking craftsmen, ensuring security and historical authenticity. Whether raised at a gathering, displayed with pride, or carried into the wild for light use, it remains a powerful emblem of Viking strength and ingenuity.
