Handaxe

For the equipment type, see Handaxes.

Handaxe is a mundane, nonmagical variant of the Handaxes family of weapons. It is a simple melee weapon wielded in one hand. It is a light weapon that anyone can dual-wield without special training. Its design lends itself well to be thrown at enemies as a projectile.

A straightforward hatchet, dulled slightly from chopping wood - or bones.
