The Housecarl's Axe is a formidable Viking weapon with a broad, slightly curved blade that tapers to a sharp point, designed for both slashing and thrusting. The axe head is made of dark, high-carbon steel with a weathered finish, showing signs of battle with nicks and scratches, while the haft is crafted from sturdy oak, wrapped in leather for a secure grip. The pommel features intricate Norse carvings, symbolizing protection and strength, with a subtle glow indicating its legendary status.
