Medium Viking Axe

This medium axe is based on original axes found near Uppsala, Sweden. The axe features forge-welded construction (like the originals) and differential hardening: the edge has been thoroughly hardened and tempered, while the body and haft socket remain untouched. This provides an added measure of resiliency to the axe head, allowing for a keen cutting edge and a schock absorbing body.

The blade is 8.25" from point to point.

Price: $550 for axe head only SOLD
plus $25 for shipping, insurance and packaging.

I can haft the axe for an added fee of $200. This includes a custom shaped and fitted oak haft.

Additional options and their prices can be discussed.




Halberd


Based on examples from the Art Institute of Chicago, this halberd is hand-forged of 1080 steel. The haft is hand-carved and shaped of oak and through-rivetted.

Overall length: 7' 2"
Edge: 7.5"
SOLD
A simlar halberd would probably run $1,600.00


Small Viking Axe


This axe is based on a small Viking axe that I documented in Sweden. It is forge-welded construction. The socket and body is made of mild steel, and the edge is made of 1080 (high carbon steel). The blade is 6.25" long. The haft is made of hickory that has been stained brown.
