'''Axes are presumably the least useful weapons in this game. <br>Although axes ''' are easy to find and seem just well balanced, they lack favorable features, and there are no named weapons nor magical weapons in this category.

Axes are generated in a wide variety of metallic materials.
Axes deliver '''slashing''' damage, and have decent [[roundness]] but this is offset by their small size giving them a mediocre block modifier of 1200.<br>
Hand axes have an adequate strength modifier, making them "rather sturdy".<br>
They have an average primary material density, meaning changing the material of the axe will have a noticeable effect on its weight. Hand axes feature a shaft made of lightweight [[List of materials#Pine|pine wood.]]
* Balanced weapons do not hold up as well as specialized ones in IVAN
* Somewhat outclassed by daggers which are only slightly weaker but are lighter and much more accurate

The two-headed variant of the axe, also a common sight in dungeons. Battle-axes are also generated in a wide variety of metallic materials.<br>

Pick-axes are [[digging]] tools first and weapons second. You'll find they are the weapon of choice for shopkeepers. Pick-axes are generated in a wide variety of metallic materials.<br>
