Nice axe

I've been throwing axes for about roughly 5 years now, and of all the ones that are designed to look Nordic and Viking Style, these ones take the gold. They are excellent throwing axes as well and stick the target 99% of the time.The only thing that concerns me is the durability. The manufacturer status that is can be used recreational wise and competitive wise, and displays so through its video advertisement. The axe clearly can be used for those means. However, I've have to replace some of the nails with heavier duty nails multiple times now, and both axes I purchased have had their heads slide significantly. They are both still secure but I feel uneasy throwing them now, because I'm concerned the head will bounce back if the wood shatters.Overall. This is a true work of a master. My only one suggestion is to adopt the same.style but include a full tang for the axe. I do suggest this axe for those who don't plan on using it as extensively as I do. It's still a great figure piece.

Great quality, good value.

My initial thought was a little disappointed because it didn't look as good as the picture and this was gotten as a gift. That being said once I actually looked at it, as it was giving right out of delivery box I was extremely disappointed and disgusted. It is molded and not a little. Not in a look closely kind of way. It's severe, and I included pictures because I need it known I'm not just making a mountain out of a mole hill. Also as I was inspecting I noticed the top of the handle which is also molded is also cracked so if this were to be thrown it wouldn't last. The design and color can be over looked, sharpness can be fixed. The health risk of it being completely covered in mold not at all up for debate. And we have immune compromised people in my home so this is extremely irritating.

At first, please understand that my writing may be awkward because I am using a translator.If you bought this axe for display at home because you wanted to give it a Viking feel, it would be perfectBut I never recommend it if you're buying it to actually throw it inAs many other reviews say, the wood at the head of the axe is poorly durable. I'm sure it will break down within 20 throws at the most.But at least it looks really nice! This axe is cool enough without having to throw it.I hope you make the right choice for your own purpose.

This is a masterpiece with good weight and balance.
