Ca. 2nd millennium BC.A cast bronze axe head featuring a short, undecorated, cylindrical shaft, and a curved blade that tapers toward the cheek. Bronze axes were one of the most important tools during the Bronze Age, and have been found in some of the most significant archaeological sites of the era. Bronze axes were made from bronze which was an alloy of copper and tin that was first developed around 3000 BC. The combination of copper and tin gave the bronze strength, resistance to corrosion, and a distinctive range of colours.

Ca. 900-1100 AD.An iron axe head, characterized by its bearded design, offers a distinctive cutting edge that extends below the width of the butt. This feature brings about a notable effect, as it enhances the axe's functionality and versatility. By extending the cutting edge below the width of the butt, the axe head provides an extended reach during strikes, allowing for deeper and more impactful cuts. This design choice enables the axe to efficiently penetrate materials and deliver forceful blows with precision. The cutting edge of the Viking Iron axe-head is rather straight, as the cheek of the axe. This similarity in shape contributes to the overall balance and stability of the weapon, enabling the user to control and maneuver it effectively. The heavy butt of this axe is designed with a wide opening, accommodating the attachment of a pole or handle. This construction enables the axe head to be securely affixed to a shaft, providing a sturdy grip and increasing the wielder's control over the tool.

This construction reinforces the overall durability and stability of the axe, facilitating a secure connection between the axe head and the handle.
