The axe, inherited from the Frank’s wars, remained an ever-present Viking weapon. It also demonstrated the Scandinavian genius for evolving specialized weaponry. The smaller axes are sized to be carried thrust through a belt, to serve as a backup weapon and being one-handed, they were used in combination with a shield. The Mammen Axe, is now displayed in the National Museum of Denmark, in Copenhagen, and is one of the best-known and best-decorated examples of the small Viking throwing axe. It is a perfect example of the Viking’s blend of art and war.
