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>
They deliver '''piercing''' damage, and have average [[roundness]] and small size leading to an average block modifier of 1500.<br>
Despite primarily being used for digging tunnels, pick-axes can surprisingly hold their own in combat.
Pick-axes have an adequate strength modifier, making them "rather sturdy".<br>
