| This fearsome weapon is covered in dried blood and crude engravings of torture and death, but bears a well-honed blade. The enormous axehead looks quite capable of dismembering any victim who falls afoul of it, and you feel confident that a single stroke would suffice. |
This weapon falls into the Axes category. It is a two handed weapon, and it is best used by the strong.
The executioner's axe is a massive two-handed weapon, one of the most powerful melee options in the game for medium-sized characters.
