Fire Axe

The Fire Axe is an uncommon bladed weapon which can be found at the fire stations in various towns. As well as being an effective melee weapon, it is one of the three melee weapons in the game which allows players to chop down trees for logs. The Fire Axe's power attack consumes 10 stamina (without the Endurance perk) and inflicts twice as much damage as a regular attack.
