Product description
The axe by Windlass Steelcrafts is based on medieval axes that were employed in medieval battles and in everyday life, for example by hunters. An axe was a tool and weapon in one. In the army camp it was possible to chop wood, to put tent pegs in the ground with the hammer blade at the back, and on the battlefield it could cause serious injuries to limbs, chainmail and armour. Hunters had axes like this to chop wood and bones. This axe type has a thick wooden shaft that fits well in the hand. The axe head has a patina layer so that the axe has a beautiful antique finish. Crafted from tempered 1065 carbon steel with a hardness of 48–52 HRC, this semi-sharp axe is fitted with a hardwood shaft. It is well-suited to medieval reenactment, or as a decorative axe for your historical weapon collection.
