Product Details
Our hand forged, tempered carbon steel Dane Axe head weighs just under 1 kg and is 22cm long with a cutting surface of 20 cm.
The cutting edge is semi-sharp so it can be honed for cutting or filed down for re-enactment use. The edges of the horn of the axe has been rounded to 20mm.
Once the edge is blunted it will be suitable for all forms of re-enactment combat.
These heavy axes were weilded in both hands by elite Viking warriors and other warriors in the region such as the Anglo Saxon "House Carls".
The Dane Axe was one of the most terrible weapons of its time. Its massive cutting power could even decapitate horses in battle.
You will need to mount the axe head on a wooden shaft and ensure that it is securely fitted.
Price includes GST and tracked postage within New Zealand.
