Bronze hatchet

The Bronze axe is the weakest axe in RuneScape. It can be used in combat as a weapon or in woodcutting to cut trees. Players can make a bronze axe with the smithing skill at level 1 using 1 bronze bar, giving the player 12.5 smithing experience. Players can purchase this axe from Bob's Brilliant Axes in Lumbridge. It respawns at Fred's farm, on the logs.

Sometimes, trees will randomly turn into Ents. If you continually chop at an Ent, the result will end up in a broken axe.

It can be fixed at Bob's Brilliant Axes in Lumbridge for free.

Trivia
Prior to the update that added the tutor non-playable characters of Lumbridge, the bronze axe sold for 16 coins in the general store. After the update, the price of the bronze axe when sold to the general store drop to 0 coins. This was done to prevent player from taking advantage of being able to get a free axe from the woodsman tutor and then selling the axe for money, however players could still sell it to Bob's Brilliant Axes for 9 coins.
