Cold Steel 89VA Viking Axe

Cold Steel 89VA Viking Axe

"Cold Steel has been a long time believer in the ferocious cutting power of a well-designed Viking Axe. Until recently it lacked the technical ability to make one to satisfaction. However with the state-of-the-art forging facility it can offer the customers something truly exceptional.

The Viking Axe's formidably long thin blade is fully polished and hand sharpened to a bone-splitting shield shattering edge. It comes with a robust 10"" cutting surface that terminates in two sharp horns or points. Traditionally the longer top point was used for stabbing gouging or parrying while the slightly shorter bottom point was used to capture an opponent's shield or to hook and immobilize his neck arms or legs. To maximize leverage strength and dexterity of movement the Viking Axe is equipped with a very strong resilient shaft.

Made in Maine from the best hickory available it enhances and amplifies the Viking Axe's lethal potential as a cutting chopping and stabbing weapon.
