A bearded axe is a type of axe that has been used since the 6th century, and it is commonly associated with the Vikings.
Description[edit | edit source]
The lower portion of the axe bit extending the cutting edge below the width of the butt is referred to as the "hook" or "beard", and provides a wide cutting surface while keeping the overall weight of the axe low. Efficiently used in combat to pull a weapon or shield from an enemy's grip.[1]
History[edit | edit source]
Viking Age[edit | edit source]
Bearded axes were used by the Vikings in combat. Occasionally they were dual-wielded.[2]
Renaissance[edit | edit source]
By the time of the Renaissance a "Bearded Axe" was a heavy bladed two-handed battle axe.[3] This inaccurate description was also carried onto the Ottoman Empire.[4]
