Viking Hand Axe – Engraved 16.5" War Axe

16 items left

This engraved 16.5" Viking hand axe is designed in-house from real Viking-era axe patterns and preserved Nordic motifs — a historically grounded war axe with authentic proportions, not a fantasy toy.

  • Head: EN45 high-carbon steel, partially hand-forged and polished bright, with a chemical-etched period-accurate design and a functional field edge (58 HRC).
  • Handle: dense, rot-resistant teak with an antique dark-brown finish and detailed Norse wood engravings mirroring Viking art and tool handles.
  • Balance: lightweight one-handed axe, approx. 1.7 lbs total with a 1.2 lb head — ideal for reenactment, collecting or functional outdoor work.
  • Grip & carry: genuine chocolate-brown cowhide leather wrap for a firm hold, with a base lanyard hole for a wrist strap or carabiner. Ships with a protective edge covering for safe handling.

Guaranteed by our one-year Norse Tradesman workmanship warranty.
