Viking Type E Axe with Etched Norse Design

Petersen's Type E dates to roughly 850-1025 AD and is defined by long spurs at the eye paired with a blade carrying a pronounced asymmetrical curve - a design refinement that emerged as Viking Age axes moved toward more specialised battlefield and status forms in the later part of the period.

Deepeeka's reproduction finishes both faces of the head with etched Norse knotwork.
