SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt for hard use and inspired by traditional Viking design, the CRKT Freyr Axe brings serious chopping power in a compact, well-balanced package. Designed by blacksmith Elmer Roush, this axe combines old-world craftsmanship with modern performance, making it a reliable tool for woodsmen, survivalists, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
The hot-forged 1055 carbon steel axe head is built to take a beating, offering outstanding toughness and edge retention. Its prominent beard design extends the cutting surface while allowing for precision control during close work. A magnesium phosphate coating adds an extra layer of corrosion resistance, keeping the blade protected against the elements. Whether you're splitting kindling, clearing brush, or tackling camp chores, the Freyr is up for the job.
Paired with a 16-inch Tennessee hickory handle, this axe provides a comfortable grip with natural shock absorption. The lacquer-sealed wood not only enhances durability but also highlights the rich grain of the hickory. At 1 lb. 12.7 oz., the Freyr strikes a solid balance between power and maneuverability, delivering powerful swings without excessive bulk.
Built for those who rely on their tools, the Freyr Axe is a rugged companion that blends heritage styling with dependable performance.
