Viking Helmet With Crossed Axes

The first sub-line release of the new Masterverse, Viking He-Man is a fantastic addition to this series. This figure is packed with a number of accessories that you won't see on any other He-Man!

He comes with an early concept style Viking horned Viking axe helmet, large golden colored shoulder armor, concept style chest armor, belt and larger removeable gold & brown left wrist bracer. The loin cloth and boots are also a new design.
Axes

A viking helmet with crossed axes is a great morale patch for your gear or to wear as a mascot. It is 2x3 inches and comes with a velcro backing to stick onto your gear or sew on your clothing. This design is available in several color options and can be customized to your liking.

The sagas describe many different types of weapons used by Vikings, including a broken-back seax, which was a bit heavier than the standard knife and served as a machete-like arm. Other weapons described include the spear, a polearm that was also used for throwing and thrusting but was not typically used in battle.

Some saga characters describe their weapon as a halberd, a similar type of weapon to the glaive that Gunnar Hamundarson uses in Njals saga. These descriptions do not appear to be accurate, however, and no such polearms have been found in Viking graves.

Chain mail was probably the main form of protection for professional warriors, although lower-status Vikings may have wore quilted cloth (gambeson) or other lightweight armor. Lamellar armour, consisting of a series of small iron plates laced together or sewn to a stout fabric or leather cats shirt, is another possibility. It is unclear how such armour would have survived the ravages of combat, but it would have required expensive smithing. Similarly, the shield was the primary means of defence for Vikings.
Shields

A viking helmet with crossed axes is one of the most iconic Norse symbols, and it’s not hard to see why! This design is perfect for a t-shirt or other apparel item, and it’s also available as a morale patch. This 2x3-inch morale patch features a viking helmet with crossed axes on a white background. It’s a great way to show off your Norse pride and is backed by the same high-quality materials used in our shirts and other products. This design is royalty-free, meaning you can use it for personal or commercial purposes without attribution. It’s a great gift for your favorite Viking fan or you can buy it to add some Norse flair to your home or office.
Mail

Mail, like a helmet and shields, was the most effective armor a warrior could wear, but it also tended to be expensive. As a result, it was often only available to wealthier individuals or lucky scavengers. It was good for repelled slashes and blunt weapons, but it was not as effective at fighting the sharper, narrower swords and maces that grew in popularity. As a result, it became more and more common for soldiers to use these weapons rather than mail or helmets. Eventually, this led to pieces of plate armor being placed on the arms and shoulders, and then later, other areas, such as the backs of the legs. This viking helmet with crossed axes is a great morale patch for those looking to show their Viking pride!
