The Cold Steel Viking Axes long blade is not a wood chopping tool, but rather it is a thin, fully polished and hand sharpened combative - style blade with a sharp edge that would be easily at home on a custom bowie knife! Its 10" wide cutting surface terminates in two sharp horns. Traditionally, the longer top point was used for stabbing or parrying, while the slightly shorter bottom point was used by the Vikings to hook an opponents shield or limbs. Our Viking Axe is equipped with a very strong American hickory haft.
