Ragnar's axe with leather hanger

Ragnar Shaggy Breeches was a legendary Viking hero who, according to Norse sagas, was “the tallest and most handsome man that human eyes have ever seen.” He “earned” his first wife by killing a giant serpent that guarded their home, and then, through a subsequent marriage, fathered future conquerors Ivar the Boneless, Björn Ironside, and Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye. Whether myth or legend, Ragnar would have treasured this beautiful, fearsome axe.
