Ok.

So there you are looking all defenseless-like as you hold your double bladed axe and then, swooosh, you pull out the Schword of Schwinging and really terrify all and sundry.

Wow.

I would look so cool wielding that combination in a thong, white hat and blue chalk. Just called me "Pissed Off Smurf" and don't get in my way!

Image ROFL!

I don't see what you guys have a problem with. It's a fun design for those who collect oddities like this. There is nothing wrong with it, and you all are being much too critical for no reason. It seems like you have lost perspective and have become snobbish in your pursuit of authenticity.

What I am taking objection to is this:

"YOU ARE BIDDING ON A HAND FORGED 18 GAUGE TRADITIONAL VIKING HELMET. THIS HELMET IS MADE VERY WELL AND IS BOUND TO ADD A HISTORIC TOUCH TO YOUR EXISTING SWORD AND KNIFE COLLECTION"

"16TH CENTURY VIKING HELMET"

Other than that the guy semms like a funny loon, and I mean this positive.

Don't EVEN get me started on why the 13th Warrior sucked, but Eaters of the Dead was a damn good book. I was sooo let down when I saw the POS movie.

18 ga. and a bargrill?
The hammer work and polish did not look that bad. I think the Indians are getting better.

I liked 13th Warrior. And every one needs a double bladed ax.

Lumberjacks don't carry double bladed axes. They carry double bitted axes.

I wouldn't know if it sucked. After about 12 minutes I threw up and sat in the lobby for the rest of the show. I can't watch movies that weren't filmed in "steady-cam". Image
