The Karl is our flagship drinking horn, no frills attached. Does not include a stand, holster or any adornments. Just pure, unadulterated bad-assery.
🍻 DRINK FROM GENUINE OX HORN - Every Viking horn is made of authentic, ethically sourced ox horn (Certified Livestock Certificate), painstakingly selected for appearance, durability, color pattern and shape. Each Norse inspired mead horn is unique in shape & color & comes packaged in a medieval burlap sack. It's time that you chose a drinking vessel as interesting as you!
🍻 PREMIUM MATERIALS - It all starts with the animals from which our horns are harvested. We only select the finest livestock to provide our drinking horns. Even then, eight out of ten horns do not pass our rigorous quality inspections. Finally, all premium drinking horn models are fitted with a premium brass wolf's head tip and Norse styled brass rim. Norse Tradesman leaves no stone unturned!
🍻 HANDCRAFTED WITH CARE - The secret ingredient of a finely crafted mead horn is the care that is put into the construction. Our artisans have been fashioning drinking horns for generations. Each of our ale horns are hand-selected, hand-cut and hand-polished to near-perfection (we say "near" because as handmade items, no horn is entirely perfect). Finally, each stand is crafted and custom fitted to it's horn, ensuring that you can display your horn proudly!
🍻 PICK YOUR STYLE - Choose between multiple sizes (Large ≈ 30 cm / X-Large ≈ 50 cm), finishes (polished or unpolished), engraving styles and stand/holster offerings. Note, however, that horn size and color varies. These are 100% natural items!
🍻 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE - When you purchase authorized Norse Tradesman goods from Daaxo Wares, your product comes guaranteed by our one year warranty. If your item suffers a serious defect in workmanship or materials, we shall provide your money back or we will die trying!
HOW IT'S MADE
The Norse Tradesman drinking horn is, of course, fashioned from real ox and cow horn, ethically sourced from produce farms in which the animals are harvested for their meat. Horns are never taken from live animals and the animals are NEVER harmed. Each horn is cut, cored, hand polished and sealed with food-safe lacquer on it's interior. Lastly, the horn's rim is adorned with quality brass, making this a drinking vessel fit for a true Jarl. Each mug is truly a unique piece of Viking lore.
DRINKING FROM YOUR HORN
The Norse Tradesman™ drinking horn is 100% food safe, as its interior is coated with a pure lacquer that's also used to seal salad bowls and spoons. Drink beer, mead, ale, liquor or any other cold beverage with confidence. However, do not drink extremely hot beverages out of your tankard, as horns can warp after repeated exposure to extreme heat. This also means you should not place the horn in your dishwasher. Besides, the Norsemen didn't have fancy dishwashing machines! Care for your horn like the Norse treasure that it is.
After purchase, we will email you specific instructions on how to care for your traditional Viking cup.
Now raise your horns in honor of the old Norsemen! Raise your horns in remembrance of a time when life was simple and victory was sealed in blood! SKÄL!
