2011年6月6日 · Peterson’s typology is only concerned with Norwegian axes, so is not a complete catalog of the axes in use by Vikings (Scandinavians), or during the Viking age. I’ve been collecting info on the Eastern side of the Viking world for a few years now, so I can shed some light on this issue, hopefully more or less correct

2014年2月27日 · The Viking axes you see with the heavier eyes and blades would have been more for wood work, again IMO! I guess it is like everyone says, since we don't have a "way back" machine to actually see more into the Viking culture a lot is left up to interpretation!

2010年9月29日 · I had a chance to research Viking Age axes in the collections of a number of the Danish museums in 2008. This included looking at the excellent reproductions of working axes at the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde. The related project was to create a set of ship building tools for L'Anse aux Meadows NHSC (Parks Canada).

2014年2月3日 · Good Day to all. I know I've posted a lot on this subject, but forging the axe is my play activity. I make my living forging hooks, and after you've passed the 10,000 mark, the thrill is gone :-) Anywhere, surfing the web for photos and articles of interest.

2014年2月27日 · I dont know much about earlier or later axes, there might be blurrier lines there. In the late viking age and early medieaval period there is no doubt.
