A boarding axe is a melee-range Heavy Edged / Heavy Edged metal weaponsmithing template.
It is a 10- Difficult template, uses 10 volumes of metal, and is covered by the Expert Swappable Weapon Design technique.
It is 9 by 2 by 1 spans.
This metal weapon has the standard construction values for its type.
Description
One side of the axe blade curves smoothly, allowing the user to chop at wood or tangled lines, while the other is a truly vicious looking sharpened spike capable of tapping a barrel or puncturing a helmet with equal ease.
