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, weathered steel with visible forging marks and a polished edge, while the haft is crafted from sturdy oak, wrapped in leather for a secure grip. Decorative Norse runes are engraved along the blade, and the pommel features a bronze cap with intricate knotwork designs.
