One Story. Built to Last.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome gifts get used once and forgotten. This one gets used for years and passed down. The Carbon Steel Viking Axe and Knife Gift Set is a matched 2-piece set built from the same material, finished the same way, and engraved with the same hand-carved Norse tribal pattern. The Viking bearded axe carries a carbon steel head with a black stone-wash coating that resists rust and looks better with age. The fixed blade knife matches — same black coating, same walnut wood handle, same deep geometric tribal arrow engraving. Both pieces come with leather sheaths. A set that works as hard as it looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat’s Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePiece\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eViking Bearded Axe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon steel axe head, black stone-wash coating, dark walnut wood handle, deep Norse tribal geometric engraving, brass rivets, leather sheath\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixed Blade Knife\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon steel blade, black stone-wash coating, dark walnut wood handle, matching Norse tribal geometric engraving, brass rivet, leather sheath\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eComplete Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon Steel (both pieces)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Stone-Wash Back Coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark Walnut Wood (both pieces)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle Feature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDeep Hand-Carved Norse Tribal Geometric Arrow Engraving\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrass Rivets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSheath\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeather Sheath Included for Both Pieces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 4 lbs (full set)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGift for Him | Birthday Gift | Christmas Gift | Father’s Day Gift | Outdoor Cooking | Camping | Hunting Trip | Ranch \u0026amp; Farm Use | Wood Chopping | Knife Collecting | Display \u0026amp; Wall Mounting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatched 2-piece set — axe and knife with identical design language\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon steel blades with black stone-wash coating on both pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark walnut wood handles with deep hand-carved Norse tribal geometric engraving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass rivets on both handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeather sheath included for both the axe and the knife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack coating resists rust and develops character with outdoor use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Black Stone-Wash Coating\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe black stone-wash coating on both blades is not paint — it is a surface treatment applied to the carbon steel that reduces reflectivity, resists rust, and gives the blade a raw, rugged look that improves with use. Unlike polished blades that show every scratch, the stone-wash finish absorbs field wear and looks better the more it is used. Carbon steel holds a sharper edge than stainless and is easier to resharpen in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Norse Tribal Engraving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe deep geometric tribal arrow engraving on both handles is hand-carved into the dark walnut wood — not laser etched or stamped. The pattern draws from Norse and tribal geometric traditions: interlocking arrow shapes and chevron patterns that run the full length of both handles. The engraving provides grip as well as visual character. Both pieces carry the same pattern, making this a true matched set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry both blades immediately after any moisture contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply a light coat of mineral oil to the carbon steel blades regularly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean the walnut handles with a soft dry cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply food-safe wood oil to the walnut handles occasionally\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition the leather sheaths with leather conditioner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a dry, ventilated space with sheaths on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eExplore More Handmade Knives \u0026amp; Axes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hsknivesstore.com\/collections\/hunting-knives\"\u003eHunting Knives\u003c\/a\u003e — Hand forged fixed blade hunting knives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hsknivesstore.com\/collections\/bowie-knives\"\u003eBowie Knives\u003c\/a\u003e — Premium handmade Bowie knives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hsknivesstore.com\/collections\/skinner-knives\"\u003eSkinner Knives\u003c\/a\u003e — Handmade skinner knives collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hsknivesstore.com\/collections\/cowboy-knives\"\u003eCowboy Knives\u003c\/a\u003e — Handcrafted cowboy style fixed blade knives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does carbon steel rust?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Carbon steel can develop surface rust if left wet or stored in humid conditions.
