This is my 4th viking hand axe I purchased. It's a piece of art. The engraving is phenomenal. Attention to detail is top notch. Customer service is the best, Kristi and Liam answered all of my questions quickly. My first axe was the Invader many years ago, Everything I have purchased from BlackGaurd is built to stand the test of time! As a Navy vet myself, I'll be a customer for life, and to anyone reading this, try to support this great Vet owned company in anyway possible. God Bless you all!
