The dwarven waraxe was a type of axe unique to the dwarven people[2][3] and was thus considered by other races to be among the more unusual weapons utilized by them.[4]
Description[]
The dwarven waraxe was a single-bladed axe, larger and heavier than a battleaxe, but less so than the double-bladed greataxe.[2] The average dwarven waraxe weighed around 8 lb (3.6 kg).[1]
Weaponology[]
It required special training to use a dwarven waraxe one-handed, due to its size.[2]
