Description

Setting out to create one of these great steel or mithril axes can be a daunting proposition given the sheer amount of materials required to create them. Also known as a Sundering Axe, their most common form is that of a great daneaxe wielded by a Varushkan or Wintermark warrior, although they are also popular in some parts of Marches. Woodcutter’s Axes are often engraved with Yoorn, the Rune of Ending or Kyrop, the Rune of Weakness.

In the the League, there is a tradition of making these weapons in the form of heavy, thick bladed greatswords colloquially called Butterknives - a waggish reference to the way the weapons cut through steel as if it was butter. For a similar reason, some Marcher or Navarri warriors refer to them as Hotknives. The greatsword incarnation of this weapon is often marked with the rune Hirmok, representing its dominance over other tools of war.
