*This item used to be given out by the [[guide]]s but is now a standard newbie tool. 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 1[[kg]] 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. Howerver, you will still gain skill in [[woodcutting]] no matter what tool or weapon you use.
