Description

The "Fenrisulfr" is a hand-forged, hardened bearded Viking axe in high-carbon AISI 1065 steel, with a hand-carved ash handle, named for Fenrir, the great wolf of Norse myth. Forged and hardened to be used, this is a working bearded axe (not an engraved display piece) that suits reenactment and bushcraft as well as the wall.

Named for Fenrir
