Description
These throwing axes take their cues from the military tomahawks once wielded by warriors who needed speed and accuracy in equal measure. The sharpened backspike isn’t just for show,it’s a practical feature that helps the axe lodge firmly when thrown, much like the dual-purpose tools favored by fighters who trusted both blade and spike in close quarters. The handle’s rubber grip, patterned with small pebbles, provides a steady hold even when sweat or blood make your hands slick,a detail that echoes the grips chosen by blacksmiths and soldiers who knew the value of a reliable grip in the thick of action. This set includes three axes, each 10-1/2″ long overall. The axe edge measures 2-1/4″ and the head spans 6″ across, while the weight of 9-1/2 oz strikes a balance that allows for swift, controlled throws. They come with a fabric belt sheath so you can keep them close without being slowed down.
Fun fact: Throwing axes were not only weapons but also tools for training and contests among Viking warriors, who often tested their skill and strength by hurling axes at targets during gatherings and celebrations.
