CRKT Freya Axe: 1055 Carbon Steel, Black Manganese Phosphate Coating Blade Axe: 19", Tennessee Hickory Handle, Model 2749

An ancient high-seas design built for the backwoods.

Over a thousand years ago a Norse weaponry designer created the Viking axe. That form has remained recognizable and largely unchanged ever since. For good reason. The Freya™ /fray-uh/ Viking-style utility axe is a powerful everyday axe that touches on ancient design roots and thrives in the outdoors.

Elmer Roush's charity of choice for this axe is the Green Beret Foundation.

Established in 2016, the Forged by War® program spearheaded a collaboration between CRKT and Veterans, inviting real life warriors to apply their knowledge and experience to design a specialty line of mission-ready knives and tools. In addition to receiving commission on their designs, a portion of the profits are donated to the Veterans’ charity of choice. CRKT is proud to offer this dedicated collection to support the participating charities on a national level.

• Forged Tough: 1055 Carbon steel provides durability and edge retention
• Enhanced Protection: Manganese Phosphate coating improves corrosion resistance
• Durable: Tennessee hickory is a dense material that withstands hard use
• Multi-Purpose Utility: Easily split wood or hammer tent stakes
