SZCO Supplies Viking Battle Axe 27 Inch - Camping Axe with Carbon Steel Blade, Wooden Handle, Authentic Medieval Design for Outdoor, Display, Costume & Collectors - Ideal Gift for Men

I found this item while looking for Viking Replica weapons as a gift for someone special who loves everything about the Vikings. It certainly sounded impressive for the price and looked great in the picture. I found the Axe to be even more impressive when I received it. It was perfect and the pricing was fantastic. The wide stainless steel head is very impressive and the handle is a nicely finished wood. You might find one for $150.00 that could be a little better but I would have paid double what I did for this one and been happy. This may be a review of the first Battle Axe, or the second one since I was so taken with the Axe that I ordered a second one for myself. Would recommend this to any viking weapon fan. Will look great as a display or for re-enactments.

I bought this axe for my 17-year-old son, who aspires to be a Viking, and loves it. He owns several other medieval weapons, but this is by far his favorite! He could barely put it down, the first couple of days after he received it. I hated paying $10 for shipping, but otherwise it was a bargain! The axe has a solid, no-nonsense feel to it -- truly, a delightful weapon for hanging on a wall, using in a costume, or just carrying around as an intimidating conversation piece. The bottom point of the blade is quite sharp -- only the very coolest of parents will be able to bring themselves to buy this for their sons.

I don't know why anyone would complain about this item. It's $20 / Free Shipping and it arrived lightning fast. The handle may look like a leg from grandma's coffee table, but the axe head looks bad ass! 13" inch steel blade, shaft over 2' long. Nice weight. You can hold it in one or both hands. Pretty convincing, even up close. Just makes you want to grab it, raise it over your head and yell "Valhalla!!!" Without abuse, this piece could last a long time. Great as a theatrical prop. Blade edge is dull but points on the tips are sharp. Not for children (big kids excluded).

Ok, so let's get this out of the way. This is a showpiece. I would not buy this to use in any sort of combat, at least without substantial modification. From a male's perspective...that being said, this thing is pretty awesome. It's a bohemoth for certain. Translation: it's friggin huge! It will look awesome on your wall, but make sure it's in a man cave room or a home office or something. Your significant other will not be ok with this hanging on the living room wall. The blade is massive and reasonably dangerous, and should not be handled by most children...and some adults. This thing is such a beast it almost destroyed the packaging it came in. The UPS driver said, "Damn dude! You have an axe in there or something?" I said, "Yes. There's an axe in there." If I had one gripe it would be the lack of some kind of sheath. But, these didn't necessarily historically have sheaths so I understand. It would just help for the trip from the warehouse to the front door so the delivery driver doesn't fear for his life. And hey, it's under $30. Buy it for your pointy s--t collection right now.

This axe is exactly what your want! It's not sharped, which makes it perfect for swinging it around your bedroom/living room trying to kill imaginary intruders. It's a little heavy, so it will also serve as a nice workout. And you can't beat the price. Cons: I've had mine for about 6 months, and the metal is starting to rust a bit from touching the blade.

The axe is quite large. The handle looks like a leg off of a piece of furniture. There is visible glue at the top where the axe head meets the handle. It's a great prop and could look nice on a wall. The blade is blunted but the tips are quite sharp. The axe head is great, very intimidating. The shaft is a pathetic chunk of wood. I woud spend more money and buy something with more detail.

Really not bad for decoration or maybe a costume. Nice and think so nothing will really break. Can’t really find anything wrong with it. What you see is what you get. The wood color and grain pattern might vary.

Perfect! The blade is blunt so no troubles with someone getting cut and it has a nice weight! I tested it out on some watermelons and had a fun time! Perfect for any costumes whether it be halloween or renfair! (Tho do be wary it is a little cumbersome unsurprisingly)

great weapon ,well made and look good.

La mandan con poco filo, y del mango un poco suelto, pero puede resolverse, mas si la tienes en mente para algun proyecto de modificación o grabado. La he probado contra ramas gruesas y por el resultado no dudo que pueda aguantar mas. Muy satisfecho

Es un muy buen adorno que viene bastante afilado, me gustó mucho.

Totally awesome. Arrived earlier that predicted. Blade fairly sharp. Want this mounted on wall. Like it far more than expected and want it display

The axe is nice looking and decent functioning, but just a general breakdown here: -Tip of the blade came bent (I could hammer it back though easily) -Blade is not very sharp (easy to sharpen yourself) -Head of the axe is just glued on (add a couple of screws it's chill) -Blade had minor scuffs (not like you won't add more using it) -More of a one hand axe if you don't mind some weight (just in case you didn't get size) -Is it Mjornir? Unfortunately no. Will it bring you to Valhalla? Maybe Happy Yuletide
