The crafted axe is an axe, tool, and melee weapon which was added in update v0.01 of The Forest.

Gameplay[]

Like the Rusty Axe, the crafted axe will chop down trees in 13 hits (9 for the Modern Axe & 17 for the Plane Axe). It can also be used to chop limbs off dead corpses.

It can also be upgraded, and combined with cloth then lit when needed to inflict fire damage.

The crafted axe is the slowest of all axes, as well as one of the slowest weapons in the game in terms of speed. However, as the required items are very common, it can be useful to craft this weapon very early in the game. It deals more damage than the Plane Axe, has more knockdown power and a farther reach. It also has a high block level, same as the Modern Axe and the Crafted Club.

Occasionally, cannibals can be seen equipped with a crafted axe and using it in combat. After killing such an armed cannibal, the axe can be collected.

At the start of the game near the plane crash site, there are suitcases containing cloth. Obtain as much as possible, as it can be used to make rope for the axe itself.
