This is the page for Astrid's old axe. You may be looking for her new axe.

Astrid's old axe (which had previously belonged to her mother) is a weapon Astrid carries in How to Train Your Dragon and through all the seasons of DreamWorks Dragons: The Series and Dragons: Race to the Edge.

Design

Unlike Astrid's current axe, her old axe used to have a pretty standard and common design, similar to that of many other Viking Axe-fighters.

The blades of the head already looked worn and rusty in the first movie, which insinuates that this axe has had a fair amount of use. There seems to be leather twirled around the shaft for a good grip, studded with several metal pins in order to hold the axe together and increase stability.

History

Shortly after Astrid's introduction, she is seen sitting in the background holding her axe. She uses it on several occasions throughout the movie, and seems to enjoy fiddling with it, especially sharpening it.

Astrid's old axe also makes several appearances in the TV series. The head of the axe seems to be much more refined and polished in newer seasons suggesting she may have had it professionally cleaned at some point. Many a time, Astrid is seen fighting or merely sparring with her axe, and during Snotlout's AngelsAstrid gets into a fight with Snotlout over her axe, blaming him for its disappearance. This is yet another indication that Astrid's axe was of great significance and importance to her.

During "King of Dragons, Part 2", Astrid deflected a fire blast from aSingetail with her axe, causing the blade to be destroyed and leaving only the handle. After the loss of her axe, a look of brief horror crossed Astrid's face, but she swiftly got over her emotion and began to re-analize the fight. This sharp display of emotion is most likely due to the fact that Astrid's axe was a gift from her mother.

At sometime around age 20, Astrid replaced this axe with her new axe, due to the old one being destroyed.
