Viking Axe with Engraved Runes
Inspired by original Norse axes, we forged this Viking axe with careful attention to details to produce a fine and authentic masterpiece.
The head is made of high carbon steel which makes it robust and resilient.
The handle is made of rosewood which is durable, dense and very tough. It offers good resistance and remarkable stability.
The handle is also engraved with Nordic Runes and encircled with leather straps. The leather straps are tightly fixed on the shaft to add a strong grip
What do the runes on the shaft mean?
This is a question we often get from our customers; so here is the meaning of each rune from top to bottom:
OTHALA ᛟ - “HERITAGE”
Othala represents Inheritance. It symbolizes Ancestry, Possessions, Heritage, Experience, Value.
MANNAZ ᛗ - “MAN”
Mannaz represents Humanity. It symbolizes Individuality, Friendship, Society, Cooperation, Help.
ALGIZ ᛉ - “ELK”
Algiz represents an Elk. It symbolizes Protection, Defense, Instinct, Group Effort, Guardianship.
TIWAZ ᛏ - “VICTORY”
Tiwaz represents the god Tyr. It symbolizes Masculinity, Justice, Leadership, Logic, Battle.
HAGALAZ ᚺ - “HAIL”
Hagalaz represents Hail. It symbolizes Nature, Wrath, Being Tested, Overcoming Obstacles.
GEBO ᚷ - “GIFT”
Gebo represents a Gift. It symbolizes Balance, Exchange, Partnership, Generosity, Relationships.
FEHU ᚠ - “CATTLE/WEALTH”

Customer Reviews
Thanks Jonah and Team,
I am absolutely thrilled and grateful for the high quality axes and leathers.
I was a little nervous ordering especially online from so far, but to anyone reading this I can say that I live in Australia and my order was fully full filled without any issues and had support and tracking throughout the process

Ordered a pair after seeing battle scenes in Vikings:Valhalla showing two 1 handed axe fighting style. Delivered within 2 weeks of ordering. They look amazing and feel very solid, tough weapons, the head being firmly attached. These are NOT toys! The blades are weighty and very sharp so be extremely careful if using for cosplay. You could easily send someone to Valhalla for real with this, so don't use for actual re-enactment or LARP combat and be fully aware of the laws regarding offensive weapons in your area before thinking about taking these out in public.
Thanks a lot! Your words mean a lot.
The axe looks amazing, the weight is perfect and the shipping was really fast.
Thank you guys for the amazing product!
I had a question about the meaning of the Runes and I received a reply within half an hour!
This axe is the most axe i never seen 👌wonderful of piece❤..its realy looks and perfectly vikings🔥😈
The axe is all around great! Small thing I was dissapointed with is a dimple in my axe head right near the cutting edge. I don't know if this will weaken the blade over time but I like the look. The sheath is good also!
Arrived in just about a week, fully tracked the entire way, arrived in good sealed packaging and the item is very good quality, weighty and very nicely finished
Let me tell you, this piece of perfect craftsmanship is worth every penny. It?s gorgeous! I got it for my man, and he absolutely LOVES it. Pictures don?t do it justice.
It' just Perfect! Nice worked wood and also the steel is well crafted. The engraving is just like that i want! Thanks for this nice thing of handcraft.
It took a while to arrive but I guess it's because of the customs in my country (Brazil). The axe is just great though!
Great axe! really GREAT! Exactly what I expected, very sharp and the handle is quite ergonomic.
