Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $300**

Northern Europe, Scandinavia, Viking or Norse culture, ca. 8th to 10th century CE. A forged-iron axe head of a sizable form with a lengthy neck, a vertical blade with flared tips, and a wide socketing shaft with slightly flared upper and lower edges. This axe head was likely meant for utilitarian tasks like chopping wood or shaping mud bricks as the blade edge is not of the typical length found in battle-ready weaponry. However, any axe was a formidable weapon in the hands of a Norseman should the occasion or emergency arise. Lucite display stand for photography purposes only. Size: 7.8" L x 2.125" W (19.8 cm x 5.4 cm)

Provenance: ex-Starborn Creations, Sedona, Arizona, USA; ex-private German collection, purportedly found in Lithuania
