By The Sword Catalog : Arms and Armour : Medieval Battle Axes


Functional Medieval Battle Axes
The axe is one of man's oldest implements. Axes of stone, bronze, iron and finally steel were used as both tool and weapon. Most axes were used both to hew the limbs of trees as well as the limbs of men.

When the use of plate armour reached its peak, many axe designs evolved from chopping weapons to crushing weapons. Some of them were actually better than the mace, since the force of the blow was concentrated on a smaller area.

Each weapon is individually hand crafted by some of the best arms crafters in Europe. They are able to study in depth original pieces from museums and private collections in Europe. Old-World craftsmanship ensures attention to detail.

Each piece is fully functional, battle ready and will perform just as well as the originals. Available in either blunted or sharpened (1mm thickness) versions! European groups have been using these axes in live steel/re-enactments for years.

Shipping time is between 4 to 12 weeks.

Whether you desire museum quality display pieces or battle ready arms we feel confident you can find it here at By The Sword, Inc.

Bearded Axe

Ref: CD-199
Cutting tools of the Vikings commonly doubled as weapons of war when these famed raiders sailed on pillaging forays. Their axes were certainly top of the list and came to symbolize the terror spread among their foes. Varying greatly in size, from small throwing axes to the mighty Danish Axe, these were the most commonly used weapons of these Nordic warriors. Our Bearded Axe (CD-199) is typical pattern, capable of cleaving helms or armour with impunity.

Overall Length - 27 1/2", Axe Head Appx. - 6 1/2" x 8 1/4".

Shipping time is normally between 4 to 12 weeks.
