The part where he looked at the camera was the best. It was as if he was saying, "Can you believe this guy is still talking after he said 'now I'll stop talking?'"

Daneaxes were quite large. But still smaller than most fantasy axes. There was also no double-bladed axe, at most that would be used for woodcutting, and it was designed for convenience (one blade was sharp for trimming wood, and one was dull for felling trees)

@buckshots2dabrain859 Again, for woodcutting, yes. There isn't a reason why you would want to add more unnecessary weight to your fighting weapon.

@buckshots2dabrain859 It was used as a symbolic weapon in artwork. There is no proof it was ever considered a serious weapon in war time, otherwise it would have been produced in greater numbers as a weapon. Of course, anyone can use anything as a weapon in war. Peasants have used flails for threshing grain as weapons. To argue that this makes them "weapons of war" is extremely pedantic. Another good example is the existence of nunchaku martial arts (rice threshing flails). The purpose is still hotly debated today, because the nunchaku are so obviously impractical as a weapon that one must wonder why a martial art was ever developed for them. A solid stick carved from hardwood would easily be a superior weapon.

@bjorgthebarbking Believe it or not Oblivion isn't even the only game with horse armor DLC. Kingdom Come Deliverance had it as well.
