An ancient weapon
Axe fighting is an ancient form of combat in which axes are used as weapons. Historically, axes have been popular weapons in many cultures, including Viking, Scottish, and Native American. In axe fighting, combatants use different types of axes, such as throwing axes, battle axes, and hatchets.
Axe or tomahawk fighting is a specialized form of hand-to-hand combat that focuses on the use of these traditional weapons and includes both offensive and defensive moves. Some common techniques include chopping, slashing, and thrusting. Fighters also use footwork, body movement, and feints to gain an advantage over their opponent.
