Toke Gormsson (also known as Valtoke) was a Danish warlord or petty king, known from several runestones. Toke is mentioned on two runestones that note a battle at Uppsala, interpreted as the Battle of Fýrisvellir, as well as two more that mention people part of Tokis hird. These stones also mention that he was the son of Gorm, which could be the Danish king Gorm the Old, and an Asbjørn who had a father named Toki. There is also a runestone at Aars, which once marked the cairn of "Valtóki".
