Description

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.

  • QL of shaft affects % chance to create
  • This item is given out by the guides. The guide 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 made after the fight fix in late 2007 will weigh 1kg more than those made before the fight fix. This applies to self made and newbie hatchets.

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. You will still gain skill in woodcutting however, no matter what tool or weapon you use.
