Description

A short but sturdy axe with a thick blade specially designed to cut down trees with but poor in combat.

Hatchet is a small axe specifically made for woodcutting, and is much better at this task than any other type of axe. It is a poor weapon for fighting, however.

Notes

  • QL of shaft affects % chance to create.
  • This item is a standard newbie tool. The newbie hatchet is made from birchwood, is not improvable, and will burn if put in any kind of fire; take care as to not accidentally lose it in this way.
  • Hatchets used to weigh 1.5 kg before the fight fix in late 2007.

Tips

  • The hatchet is the only tool that gives tool skill above 20 when cutting down trees with it. Other tool and weapon skills cannot be improved this way beyond 20; after that using them for cutting wood only gives woodcutting skill.
