WHAT IS A SKEGGOX?
The word Skeggox in Old Norse means Skegg for beard and øx for axe, so its easy to see why this type of has become well know as a "Bearded Axe".
Although this type of axe is now synonymous with the Viking Age, earliest record date back to the 6th century. The bearded design of the axe head allows for a longer cutting blade, whilst also keeping the overall weight down. This design also allows the user to grab behind the blade when planing or shaving wood, giving greater control. The bearded axe was primarily a woodworking too for hewing planks, and was a key tool for boat building
When used in battle, the bearded portion of the Skeggox could be used to drag shields and weapons down to leave an opening for attack, or even to completely disarm the enemy.
The pendant drop is adjustable via two slip knots.
