== Description ==
A ''A short but sturdy 'small axe with ''' is a thick bladelightweight one-handed [[Axes|axe]] weapon that deals cutting damage. It is fast and accurate, but does less damage than larger axes.''
== Usage ==
* The small axe is primarily a weapon. Much like the small maul and short sword, it sacrifices damage for increased accuracy, speed, and parry rate. The standard relationship between swords, mauls, and axes suggests that small axes most likely do more damage than short swords and small mauls, but perhaps parries less than both.
* Used for cutting down [[trees]], shrubbery, and chopping up [[felled tree]]s.
