An axe for your battle

As a Viking Blacksmith, I’ve created hundreds of axes for the most fearsome Vikings. With my experience, I wanted to forge several axes with a soul unique to each, so that every Viking could have an Axe to match his battles.

FAQ Hache Viking
What's the name of the Viking axe?
The Viking axe is often referred to as a “battle axe” or “Danish axe”. There are several types of Viking axe, but the Danish axe, with its large blade and long handle, is one of the most famous.
Why did the Vikings use axes?
The Vikings used axes primarily for two purposes: combat and daily chores. Axes were versatile weapons, effective for slicing, piercing and shattering enemy shields. What's more, they were also used for chopping wood, building houses and boats, and other everyday tasks.
What are Vikings' weapons?
Vikings used a variety of weapons, including axes, swords, spears, bows and arrows, as well as knives and clubs. They also used shields to protect themselves in battle. Weapons were often made from iron and wood, and sometimes decorated with motifs and symbols.
Where did the Vikings come from?
The Vikings originated from the region of Scandinavia, which encompasses the present-day countries of Denmark, Norway and Sweden. During the Viking Age, from the 8th to the 11th century, the Vikings extended their influence, raiding and exploring many parts of Europe and beyond.
Viking axe forge
Viking axe forging was an artisanal process carried out by skilled blacksmiths, who used forging, bending and welding techniques to shape iron into strong, functional axes. Axes were often forged from several pieces of iron, some of which were harder to form the cutting blade, while others were softer to absorb shock during use. Handles were generally made of wood and carefully fitted to the axe head to ensure a solid, comfortable grip.
