Viking Axe
Cutting tools of the Vikings commonly doubled as weapons of war when these famed raiders sailed on pillaging forays. Their axes were certainly top of the list and came to symbolise the terror spread among their foes. Varying greatly in size, from small throwing axes to the mighty Danish Axe, these were the most commonly used weapons of these Nordic warriors. Our Viking Axe is a typical pattern, capable of cleaving helms or armour with impunity.

Francisca Viking Axe - Antiqued
The Francisca so named for its Frankish origins, was used by the Vikings both as a throwing weapon and for close-quarters combat. Its graceful lines are legendary but the upswept point and downturned edge were both capable of penetrating chain mail.

Our Francisca features a forged head with an antiqued finish and a swelled-end hardwood shaft for secure head retention.
Please note: Axe shafts are not covered by our manufacturer’s warranty and will not be replaced when they break. Axe shafts can break under a variety of different conditions and will normally be replaced on a fairly regular basis. To prolong the life of your axe head, we recommend never throwing 2 axes into the same target and throwing on a range with a soft surface (such as grass).
