What customers have said

I collect stuff like this and this axe is on another level. Weight and balance make it feel like a real functional piece not some cheap replica. Even the small engravings are crisp and clean. If you're on the fence just get it. You won't regret it.

It's okay. Not great not bad. Blade edge needed some sharpening out of the box. Handle material felt a bit different than pictured. Not bad, not amazing either. It's Czech made and US shipped. Packaging was just okay though.

Photos don't do this axe justice at all. Edge retention has been great even after regular use. Shipping was fast and everything arrived well packaged.

Happy with this one for the most part. Sheath is nice. Wish it had more padding but it does the job. Ransack Viking usually delivers solid quality and this was no exception. Nice that it ships from a US warehouse even though the craftsmanship is Czech. Still very happy with it and would recommend.

Five stars isn't even enough honestly. Nice touch that it ships from within the US even though it's crafted in the Czech Republic. Fit and finish is museum quality. You can tell real craftsmen made this by hand. Can't recommend this enough.

Got this as a birthday gift and the reaction was priceless. Even the small engravings are crisp and clean. Came in a nice gift box which made it feel even more special. Love it.

Happy with this one for the most part. Solid piece. Packaging could've been a bit sturdier. Good overall quality. Just a couple very minor details off. Would still tell others to give this a try.

Was nervous ordering something like this online but so glad I did. Rivets and trim are all solid. Nothing feels flimsy. Will definitely order again for another gift.

Wanted to like this more than I actually do. Handle had some rough edges that needed sanding down myself. Blade arrived with a couple small nicks in the edge. Probably won't be ordering again.

Can't stop showing this off to everyone who comes over. Padding and straps make it comfortable to wear for hours. Rivets and trim are all solid. Nothing feels flimsy. Looks incredible with the rest of my reenactment kit. This shop clearly takes pride in their work.

This is exactly what I wanted and then some. Can't recommend this enough.

Got this as a gift and now I want one for myself too. Rivets and trim are all solid. Nothing feels flimsy. Great buy overall.

Does the job but I wasn't blown away. It's Czech made and US shipped. Packaging was just okay though. Decent for occasional wear or display but not the sturdiest. Wouldn't say no to it but wouldn't rave about it either.

Was nervous ordering something like this online but so glad I did. Padding and straps make it comfortable to wear for hours. Made overseas in the Czech Republic yet shipped from a US location so no long customs wait. If you're on the fence just get it. You won't regret it.

Expected better quality for the price. Ransack Viking usually does better than this in my experience. Probably won't be ordering again.

This thing is a beast in the best way. Highly recommend this one.

Nice piece for the price. Good solid build. Finish could be a touch more even. Fits well though I had to adjust the straps a bit. Good product. Just not quite perfect.

Good quality shield for the price. Good solid build. Finish could be a touch more even. Second time ordering from Ransack Viking and still happy overall. Minor nitpicks aside, good quality piece.

Best armor piece I've ever owned.

Bought this on a whim and it turned out to be one of my favorite purchases this year. Rivets and trim are all solid. Nothing feels flimsy. Highly recommend this one.

So happy I finally pulled the trigger on this one. Rivets and trim are all solid. Nothing feels flimsy. So worth it.

No regrets on this purchase at all. Fit is excellent and the steel gauge feels genuinely protective. Worth every penny.
