Mammen axe with engravings
The Mammen axe was excavated from a 10th-century burial mound at Mammen in Jutland, Denmark, and is considered one of the most striking and beautiful archaeological finds from the Viking Age. This unique piece lent its name to the Viking art style of the same name.
The grave from which the Viking axe was recovered dates to around 970/971 AD and is believed to be the final resting place of a man of high, even princely, status. The small iron axe was richly adorned with inlaid engravings of precious metals, leading to the assumption that it may have been a ceremonial or prestige weapon rather than a mere battle or throwing axe.
The original piece, as well as many more grave goods and textile remains from the so-called Mammen Find (Danish: Mammenfundet ) are on display at the National Museum of Denmark ( Nationalmuseet ) in Copenhagen.
The Viking axe offered here replicates some of the engraved motifs on the original artifact. The high carbon steel axe head has an unsharpened edge of approx. 10.5 cm long and is mounted on a wooden shaft of approx. 60 cm long.
It is primarily designed as a collector's or decoration/display piece and is in no way suitable for combat reenactment. In addition to its quality as a collector's item, it is also perfectly suited as an accessory, for example to complete your Viking costume.
Details :
- Material: Unsharpened high carbon steel blade (not stainless!), ash wood handle
- Total length (shaft): approx. 60 cm - Axe head: approx. 16 x 10.5 cm
- Blade thickness: approx. 1.8 cm at the neck / approx. 0.3 cm before the edge
- Shaft thickness: approx. 3.5 x 2.5 cm
- Weight: approx. 760 g
- Supplied WITHOUT case
Specifications may vary slightly from piece to piece.
The steel used here is not rust-proof and may show slight surface tarnishing in places. We recommend that you maintain the blade regularly, for example by using Ballistol Universal Oil, which is ideal for the care of steel.
