Forged Two-Handed Double-Bitted Fantasy Battle Axe with Brass Studs
Historical Reality Versus Fantasy Worlds
Historically speaking, we must set the record straight—although similar weapons are often labeled as "Viking" axes, genuine Norse warriors did not use double-bitted axes in battle whatsoever. Two-handed weapons featuring two symmetrical blades were popularized exclusively by modern fantasy literature, comic books, and the gaming industry. The actual two-handed weapon of the Vikings was the single-edged Dane axe. However, this fact takes nothing away from the grandeur of this weapon. The massive forged double steel head makes it a perfect and terrifying artifact that fits wonderfully into any fictional world and epic narrative.
Construction and Strict Safety Rules
Both massive blades are honestly forged from carbon steel and come supplied with two practical leather edge protectors that fasten with steel snap fasteners. From a safety perspective, we must issue a very strong warning: weighing an impressive 2.8 kg (6.17 lbs), this weapon is under no circumstances intended for contact Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA, buhurt) or LARP battles against living opponents! A strike with such a heavy steel weapon would with absolute certainty cause fatal injuries. Likewise, it is not a functional working tool designed for chopping firewood. The axe is designed primarily as a luxurious costume accessory and an imposing wall decoration.

Care for Steel, Wood, and Leather Accessories
Carbon steel is naturally susceptible to rusting, especially if you use the weapon outdoors. After every handling or use in a damp environment, you must wipe the steel blades completely dry and carefully treat them with a thin layer of gun or natural oil. We highly recommend occasionally conditioning the wooden shaft, which is decorated with elegant brass rivets, with pure linseed oil to nourish the wood and prevent it from cracking. Keep the leather edge protectors supple and hydrated by using a high-quality beeswax leather balm.
