The Cold Steel Viking Axes long blade is not a wood chopping tool, but rather it is a thin, fully polished and hand sharpened combative – style blade with a sharp edge that would be easily at home on a custom bowie knife! Its 10″ wide cutting surface terminates in two sharp horns. Traditionally, the longer top point was used for stabbing or parrying, while the slightly shorter bottom point was used by the Vikings to hook an opponents shield or limbs. Our Viking Axe is equipped with a very strong American hickory haft.Blade length: 9.625 inOverall length: 52.00 inBlade material: 1055Handle material: Hickory woodSheath sold separatelyWeight: 4 lbs. 10.0 ozBlade finish: SatinWARNING – This product can expose you to chemicals including NICKEL, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
