My Blacksmith Husband Made a Big Axe for a Tournament Prize | And Then Had to Play With It
This is a 15th century German great axe that is a prize for an upcoming SCA tournament in the Middle Kingdom. This was a "common" medieval weapon (as opposed to a knightly weapon). Not that a knight would not have owned such a weapon, but the knightly battle axe was constructed differently (it was constructed to imitate a poleaxe). Commoners in Germany were well-armed, but did not carry weapons publicly without good reason, for instance, while traveling or while being part of a criminal hunt.

The axe head is made from high carbon steel and the handle is ash.
For anyone curious about what exactly the 'SCA' is -- The Society for Creative Anachronism is an international, non-profit educational organization that studies and recreates the medieval and Renaissance years of 600-1600AD.
