Description

At Royal Blades, we bring the heritage of the North into the modern era. This 17.5-inch Viking-style axe is a premier example of our commitment to high-performance metallurgy and traditional woodcraft.
​Elite 512-Layer Damascus Forging
The axe head is meticulously hand-forged from 512 layers of high-quality steel, creating an eye-catching Wave pattern that flows across the entire bit. Unlike decorative replicas, this head is tempered to a professional hardness of 55-60 HRC, ensuring it maintains a surgical edge through rigorous use while providing the structural integrity required for heavy tasks.
​Ergonomic Hardwood & Superior Balance
A tool of this magnitude requires a handle that matches its strength. The handle is carved from premium hardwood, featuring a deep, natural grain and a contoured profile for a secure, comfortable grip. The weight is distributed for exceptional balance, allowing for fluid motion and maximum leverage, whether you are in the field or displaying it in your hall.
​Genuine Leather Protection
Every Royal Blades original deserves premium protection. This axe includes a handmade genuine leather sheath designed to secure the Damascus bit. Featuring reinforced stitching and heavy-duty brass snaps, the sheath ensures your 512-layer steel stays protected from the elements while providing a classic, rugged aesthetic for belt or pack carry.
