Danish Hand Axe 600642

Danish hand axe

All victims of the Vikings were called Danes, that's what the Saxons called them: It didn't matter if they came from Norway, Denmark or Sweden, they called them Danes.

Most of them would be familiar with the impressive Danish Axe, with its huge blade, sometimes over a foot wide. But the smaller axes were more popular for all kinds of work such as cutting branches from trees. They could be thrown if necessary, but were most useful in hand-to-hand combat with or without a shield. Blade made from high carbon steel. This is not just a fancy replica, it is an elegant axe in its own right.
