Item Details
Description
Ca. 900-1100 AD. An iron bearded axe head with an elongated, curved blade and tapering cheek. The bearded axe, or Skeggøx (from Old Norse Skegg, "beard", and øx, "axe") was common from the 6th century AD onwards in Scandinavia but made most famous by the Vikings, who used these axes in battles to terrible effect. In bearded axes, the main part of the axe blade extends below the butt of the axe, creating a large cutting blade and allowing a fighter to hook onto the shields or weapons of their opponents. For more information on Viking axes, see Hubbard, B. (2016) The Viking Warrior. Amber Books Ltd, London, 139-141. This item comes with a custom-made display stand.Size: L:145mm / W:195mm ; 1.28kgProvenance: Private UK collection; From an old British collection formed in the 1990s
