Black Ragnar - Seconds

This item is in clearance due to cosmetic issues which don't match our usual high standards. There is a scratch on one edge of the haft. Please refer to the images provided for more details

This axe is inspired by the legendary warrior Ragnar Lothbrook. This is the same beast as our Ragnar hatchet, only burnt black with a lot of thick, black, genuine leather - fully wrapped for an extra gnarly finish. It comes with the same great hand stitched tan leather sheath with belt loops for functionality. This axe is a serious all round fully functional unit that would look mean in any display.

Burning black is an old blacksmiths trick to smooth the handle and prevent getting blisters whilst they work. It wraps the wood in a layer of carbon that's highly resistant to mould, insects, water and even fire. It also hardens the wood, making it less likely to crack or splinter. This process is called "Charring" - burning and rubbing in oil whilst the wood is still hot/warm. Cool right?
