| Description |
What does the mind see when we look upon the graceful yet efficient lines of this powerful weapon? The heat of ancient battles? Dark rituals done to honor long forgotten gods? It touches a chord somewhere deep within us, emotions as old as the earth, that even the best of us cannot always deny. Perhaps we should not try to, and instead admire this axe as a work of art, made beautiful and harmless by time.
