Customer photo review of Tactical Tomahawk Axe "Garmr"

Kevin A.

45 yo guy who reads too many Jack Carr novels.. This thing is awesome. (13.75in. Garmr) It's shockingly nice for the money. Handle is carved to give it 3 distinct gripping areas. The wood panels and spine/tang of the metal are fit flush for a comfortable grip. And the weight is substantial! - it's going to out last any who buys it. I mean if you actually had to use it on someone...let's just say you'd need a change of clothes immediately. It's a great truck tomahawk and hiking tool that wil...

Jessica P.

The Tomahawk Ogun is absolutely amazing! From the craftsmanship to the overall look, everything about it is top-notch. It’s solid, well balanced, and clearly made with attention to detail. This is one fine tomahawk that stands out in both quality and design.

I bought one for my dad a few months back and couldn’t help but envy it until I ordered another one for myself. The craftsmanship is excellent. You pick this axe up and the balance and weight are perfect. The holster/shealth is also a must have !

Customer photo review of Dog Head hammer for Blacksmith

Teresa B.

My dad has had a year of health issues. He's almost died 3 times, and been on a vent twice. I don't know if he'll be strong enough to work in his forge again. He wanted to build himself a dog head hammer. I was delighted to find ancient smithy. They had the perfect hammer, and had the different weights so I could choose. And they had personalization. I was concerned there would be a lengthy shipping process. There wasn't. I ordered it. Had it personalized with my dad's business name. An...

David B.

Love the design, strength and feel of the Axe. Very wonderful, carving and engraving is perfect. If you are a GOW fan this is a must. Replicas are great, but functional replicas are the best! No regrets at all.

Customer photo review of Premium Wooden Gift Box №2

Jose A.

The presentation box is just as impressive as the axe itself. It is well-crafted and sturdy, with a clean and refined appearance that immediately gives the sense that something special is inside. The design protects the axe perfectly while also showcasing it in a way that feels premium and carefully thought out. Opening the box truly feels like unveiling a piece of art.

I recently received this axe. Ordering was very easy, after a few days the axe was delivered in sturdy packaging. The axe itself exceeds my expectations, it is a solid and neatly finished product. The axe will get a prominent place in the house where it will be visible to everyone.

I cannot express how amazing this axe is. It exceeded my expectations 1000 fold. If this axe were twice the price, It'd still blow me away for the value. These are excellent craftsman who made this thing of beauty.

Feels amazing. The weight, the material the looks, everything about it is 10/10. Can't wait to sharpen it and put it to action! At first I was hasitant about the price but the quality is amazing. There are a few minor details that are bugging me but its not something to be concerned about.

it’s a masterpiece, The details on this are crazy, it’s made with high quality metal and high quality leather, it takes a bit time to charge the glow in the dark with the uv light. it arrived earlier than expected, the staff were very helpful and friendly. overall i rate it 9.5/10 because it takes time to charge it up.

Customer's Viking Axe "Vindflaug" showing its dark wooden handle, leather wrapping, and sharp steel blade.

Robert

I bought this for a friend, it was ordered to his home. Firstly, It is beautifully made, sharp, with excellent craftsmanship. We both love the blade, i actually want to buy one for myself. The transition to the blade is so smooth I was very impressed by it. Only downside is the wrapping is not very secure, I would recommend a tighter wrap or a brass wedge or screw to help keep the head on. Other than that beautiful and thank you for the note!

I ordered the Ulfhednar axe and saw that it said "ready to ship". I assumed that it would be shipped and delivered in a few days. When it wasn't I contacted the seller who was awesome enough to share some information about the status of the axe and it arrived a week or so later. Unboxing this axe took a bit of effort and I happy it did. The axe and box were very well protected for their long journey although I couldn't wait to get it in my hands I was happy to cut away the plastic and wrapping t...

Customer photo review of Big Viking hammer with Vegvisir

Matthew L.

Damn, this sucker totally exceeded my expectations. I read so many reviews on Ancient Smithy, but I was still nervous that my order might show up as a cheap, flimsy, wall hanger. But now that I’ve received it, I’m convinced AS is the place to go. The presentation box: Again, I was afraid it would be flimsy and cheap—couldn’t be further from the truth. The box is solid wood, with expert carving and engraving. The inside is felt-lined and has real leather straps to hold the hammer in place. The H...

Very happy with my tomahawk! This thing is solid with a thick full tang, wonderful handle shape and the wood scales and pins are well done. The edge wasn't super sharp when it arrived but with a few minutes it was as sharp as I wanted. Shipping time was reasonable as well. Thank you!

Paul B.

My first axe from Ancient Smithy and a photo doesn’t do this axe justice, you must have one in front of you and in your hand. The level of craftsmanship is beautiful. The service is great and it arrived really quickly to England. The hardest part now is choosing my next axe from them, as they all look so good!

This replica of the Leviathan Axe from God of War is absolutely perfect. It is both weighty and finely detailed with 100% precision. It made for a very nice Christmas gift for my son, and it shipped in a timely manner. It arrived quicker than expected and my son carries it around the house often. The entire product was handled with care and the company put a lot of effort in to make this as great as possible. You can tell this was a product of hard work and passion.

I was ecstatic to find Acient Smithy. My dad had wanted to make his own dog head hammer, but his health has been poor. I found the hammer, in the size I needed. The best thing was having it personalized with my dad's business name) I had concerns about it being in time for Christmas. I messaged several times following it's tracking. They messaged back within a few hours at most. It came on time, and my dad was thrilled! Thank you for a wonderful and quality product along with great service!

Customer video review of Hand-forged "Ragnarok Kratos axe" with carved handle and Glow-in-the-Dark Runes

Roee H.

Well, I finally got to open my new Leviathan axe, and it's awesome! Handle feels great, the blade feels hard, massive and unbreakable, The size is fit for a real Vikings (And Kings), I honestly though it would be smaller :) Happy to have it as powerful as it is! I thought the glow in the dark Runes would be painted on the blade itself so it (the blade) would glow in the dark by itself, not a deal breaker, but that was what I understood. From price - it feels very worthy of the price (With the bl...

I love the ship but it needs to be made a little bit longer because the drill hose don’t match up to the studs that would be a big plus and a help other than that it’s beautiful
