Forging the Viking Axe from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla in Real Life [Video]

From That Works:

We forge the cover axe from the new Assassin’s Creed Valhalla game. During the video we share some fax about real viking axes as we forge this one based off of Boss Logic’s Cover Art that debuted the new game and that it would take place in the Viking era. We use a power hamer to do a lot of the forging but also show some hand techniques and we also use all of our forges. We start in the propane forge than move to coal and end up heat treating the axe and the back spike in the charcoal forge. We show some engraving into steel before the heat treat and some tricky grinding on our Brodbeck Ironworks belt sander.
