Cold Steel Viking Hand Axe Hatchet

A modern version of the historic fighting tool used by the Vikings. The handle was made of Hickory wood, which is durable and at the same time has an aesthetic appearance.

The length of the axe makes it possible for us to use centrifugal force while working and, despite its relatively light weight, to strike with really great force. Historical Vikings used this during battle, while we will appreciate it when working with wood even if only when preparing a campfire or shelter.

The head was made of 1055 carbon steel, and the steel's heat-treatment process was refined to ensure high impact strength while ensuring good working sharpness hold. The cutting edge on the Viking Hand Axe model is as long as 15 centimeters. Thanks to the large cutting surface, you can easily chop up even large pieces of wood, and in an emergency situation also cut up food and prepare a meal.
