Product information "Rommunds Axe, Viking Axe from Gotland"
Viking based on an archaeological find from Rommunds, Gotland
This high-quality, hand-made Viking Age bearded axe is modeled after an original iron piece found in Rommunds (Gammelgarn, Gotland, Sweden) and dated to approx. 800 - 1099 A.D. (see the last two pictures above).
The was hand-forged from high carbon steel. Its particular shape shows plant ornamentation elements and its dimensions are true to the original early medieval Gotlandic find, which may have been used both as a battle axe and working axe and can be admired at the Swedish history museum (Statens historiska museum, also known as Historiska museet) in Stockholm.
The Rommunds hand axe comes complete with an untreated ash wood shaft.
This early medieval axe is designed as a collector’s or decoration/display piece and, besides its quality as a collectible, is also perfectly suited as a prop, e.g. to complete your Viking costume.
Details:
- Material: unsharpened high carbon steel blade (not stainless), ash wood handle
- Overall length (with shaft): approx. 26 cm
- Axe head: approx. 11 x 8 cm (like the original piece)
- Shaft thickness: approx. 3 x 2 cm
- Weight: approx. 360 g
Specs may slightly vary from piece to piece.
The steel used here is not rust-proof and might show slight surface tarnishing in places. We recommend you to maintain the blade on a regular basis, for example using Ballistol Universal Oil, which is ideally suited for steel care.
