Welcome to Ransack Viking
A Proud Offering of Black Mamba Knives — Where Tradition Meets Craftsmanship
My name is Mark Kovaslsky, and I am honored to introduce you to Ransack Viking, a brand born from passion, heritage, and the pursuit of timeless craftsmanship. Rooted in Illinois, we carry forward the spirit of the Vikings—strength, endurance, and artistry—through every blade and tool we create.
Our Journey
Ransack Viking began as an extension of Black Mamba Knives, founded in a small city in Illinois. What started as a dream to blend traditional forging techniques with modern design and functionality has grown into a respected name in the world of knives and axes.
From the start, our mission has been clear: to create more than just tools. Every Ransack Viking piece is an heirloom—built to be used, admired, and passed down for generations.
Today, our work represents a bridge between ancient craftsmanship and modern innovation, serving collectors, outdoorsmen, adventurers, and anyone who values strength, precision, and artistry.
Our Craft
At Ransack Viking, every knife and axe tells a story. Our artisans in Illinois work tirelessly to forge each blade with precision and integrity, using only the highest-quality steel, exotic woods, and natural materials.
Inspired by Viking culture, our designs capture the raw power and rugged elegance of the North, while ensuring practical utility for everyday use. From the twist of Damascus steel to the curve of a hand-carved handle, nothing is overlooked.
Each Ransack Viking blade embodies:
-
Heritage – rooted in the traditions of skilled blacksmiths.
-
Durability – forged to withstand the test of time.
-
Artistry – made for those who value beauty in strength.
