About
Axes is a skill and a weapon class in Valheim.
Axes are the only type of player weapon that can be used to cut trees. They can also be used against creatures which makes for a slightly worse sword.
Higher skill level in axes reduces the stamina cost to swing axes and increases damage done against non-trees. The woodcutting skill affects damage to trees.
