    This Viking Bearded Axe has a weighty and powerful chopping axehead forged from high carbon steel – much of the axe is left rough-polished from the forge to retain a period appearance. The axehead is mounted and pinned onto a hardwood haft with an oval cross section.

      No This axe is built robustly, but is disappointing in most other regards. The blade is so thick and the grind so steep that it practically bounces off of wood. To make it able to cut at all would require fully reprofiling the edge, which is so much stock removal that it’s not worth it, the steel is just hard enough to make it difficult to work on, while being soft enough that the edge starts folding after relatively light use, even with how stupidly thick it is. I can’t recommend this axe even for display.

      Ok this is for the price The blade angle is about 45 degrees and goes directly to about 1/2 an inch and stays that thick until it mounts on the handle. Plus side – it won’t break, it has a nice oval handle and balance so feels controllable, and the head seems to be heated then put on – or pushed on with force, with a a small metal sheet that is on the side of the nail that goes thru the shaft, and then a small metal wedge in the center top part of the shaft. Bad – it isn’t an all around tool like most of them (make planks, shingles, chop meat – people…) it should split wood like mad if it is dry pine. heck it is thicker and wider angle than most wedges. but I don’t know about wood chopping. But this was bought for a friend and will be largely a wall hanger. But it should be able to hold up to real work – zombie duty if needed .(after some filing and running a stone over the edge.) It does have some carbon or grease ? on it like the pictures – not horrible I like the slight used look, but I will try to wash it off and put some tung oil or rosin on it.

      Excelent Axe This axe was well worth only $40. Sure the bevel was very steep and it was dull but that doesn’t change that this is great. While the axe is a little bit heavier than it is conmfortable it is truly a two-handed axe, I feel like a beast weilding this thing. There are a few problems though, the axe is NOT sharp, it wll take a little sharpening froma file, angle grinder, or belt grinder. The body of it seems to be a little cracked towards the bottom, but nothing that will affect the performance of it. Finally it is decently heavy, but nothing someone couldnt weild with two hands. Overall, this was excelent for the price, it is sturdy, heavy, looks amazing, and just makes you feel like a true nord when using it. Hell, I think I can already feel my beard growing after just one day of getting it.
