Description
3D Printed item includes £6.50 + VAT for DPD Next day Service Charge (UK MAINLAND ONLY).
3D Printed Part: Please Note Price is for ONE AXE ONLY.
Knowledge about military technology of the Viking Age (late 8th to mid-11th century Europe) is based on relatively sparse archaeological finds, pictorial representation, and to some extent on the accounts in the Norse sagas and laws recorded in the 14th century.
According to custom, all free Norse men were required to own weapons, as well as permitted to carry them at all times. Indeed, the Hávamál, purported to be sage advice given by Odin, states “Don’t leave your weapons lying about behind your back in a field; you never know when you may need all of sudden your spear.”
As war was the most prestigious activity in Viking Age Scandinavia, beautifully finished weapons were an important way for a warrior to display his wealth and status. A wealthy Viking would likely have a complete ensemble of a spear, a wooden shield, and either a battle axe or a sword. Battle axes were considered the “normal weapon” for middle class vikings. Swords were normally reserved for upper class and nobles. Much poetry was associated with viking weapons. The richest might have a helmet and mail armour; these are thought to have been limited to the nobility and their professional warriors (retainers). Several layers of thick woollen clothing may have been used by poorer warriors. The average farmer was likely limited to a spear, shield, and perhaps a common axe or large knife (seax). Some would also bring their hunting bows (mostly long bow or flat bow) to use in the opening stages of battle.

Jason @offbeatprinting –
Beautifully decorated axe model – Ideal for cosplay or just to display!
I had great results with this model even with my FDM printer (though I split the model up into sections to make printing easier). The decorative markings came out really well but I would recommend having the ‘Detect Thin Walls’ setting enabled in the slicer to prevent small details being lost!
