Dharok's greataxe

Dharok's greataxe is a melee weapon that is part of Dharok the Wretched's set of barrows equipment. This two handed weapon requires 70 Attack and 70 Strength to wield. It has the fifth highest strength bonus in the game with +105 and the second highest crush attack bonus with +95. When used in conjunction with the full Dharok's set, the set effect can allow hits in the high 90s, though some players report hitting over 110. In the quest While Guthix sleeps, at one point the player's combat stats are increased to 255. Theoretically the Dharok set special would be able to hit 230+, but this is unproven. As with all Barrows equipment, this item cannot be made using the Smithing skill.

If Dharok's greataxe is wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Dharok's barrows set, the player receives a special attack. Attacks do more damage as the player's Hitpoints decrease, up to double damage at 10% hitpoints. The maximum hit with the Dharok set effect is 112. This weapon is very slow, similar in speed to a 2-handed sword, and opponents can attack you multiple times before you can attack once. However, this weapon's power, slashing attacks as well as crushing attacks make up for this disadvantage.

This axe is often obtained by rich or high level woodcutters and used with their Woodcutting skill cape to show their high level in Woodcutting and look like the Woodcutting tutor. However, a Dharok's greataxe cannot be used for actually cutting down trees.

The axe will degrade from 100 to 75 then to 50 and so on. This weapon can be fixed at Bob's Axes in Lumbridge or Tindel Merchant in Port Khazard. The price depends on how much it has degraded. To fully fix it costs 100k.

Dharok's greataxe is commonly used in the TzHaar city to fight the TzHaar-Ket and TzHaar-Xil, as it gives high strength bonuses and can be used to deal high damage to them.

'' * - Dharok's greataxe is only tradable when undamaged or fully broken.

Trivia
During the Graphical Update, Dharok's Axe was first held over the shoulder, with both hands, then over the shoulder again, then it got glitched because Jagex kept on changing it. This has been fixed by Jagex.

To do the glitch, players would hold a Dharok's Axe and open their combat interface menu. It would glitch and result in it being held to something like a Dragon Longsword.
