Tips

The Hatchet is the only tool that will continue to give you tool skill above 20 when cutting down trees with it. Cutting down a tree with anything else than a hatchet will only increase your skill with that tool/weapon to a maximum of 20; after which you will have resort to other means to raise it further. Howerver, you will still gain skill in woodcutting no matter what tool or weapon you use.
