OVERVIEW:
A scavenged fire axe re-purposed as a makeshift melee weapon. Its tough construction and long reach make it ideal for keeping zombies at bay- not a bad choice if you're looking to save a few precious bullets, or if you don't have any left...
BACK STORY:
"...One of them pulled the rifle right out of Knight's hands, and in a heartbeat it vanished into the mob. In the same moment, he spotted a fireman's box. Among the supplies tucked inside was a shiny new fire axe, which he frantically ripped out and brought to bear just as the crowd made another push up the stairwell. You don't ever want to go hand-to-hand, so even with an improvised weapon like that, your odds improve dramatically. Knight appreciated the thing so much, I don't think it ever left his side after that day."
CONTROLS
The Zombie Hunter's Axe is designed to be used in mouselook. Arrow keys move your avatar as normal, mouselook click to swing the axe. Outside (and inside) of mouselook, you can also press FWD and BACK at the same time to swing.
Note that swings will only connect if your target is within a 45-degree cone in front of your aiming point when you make the swing.
GESTURES
As a melee weapon, the Zombie Hunter's Axe is a secondary weapon. Using the included gestures, it's mapped to the 2 key. If used with a primary weapon (such as the FAL-PARA), pressing 2 will automatically safe the primary weapon and deploy the secondary weapon. CTL S to safe (using included gestures.) Gestures may be modified to use this weapon-swapping functionality with any primary weapon.
RP MODE
The Zombie Hunter's Axe features a simple RP mode that toggles blood effects. When RP mode is on, swings that connect with a target will spray blood. The cutting edge of the axe will also become splattered with blood. You can clean the edge of the axe using the command 'clean.'
ANIMATIONS
The Zombie Hunter's Axe features an animation overrider. It takes over certain animations such as standing, running, and walking. As such, it's always best to turn off any and all other animation overriders you might be wearing, as they could conflict with the axe's animations.

This axe, for starters, is very well made in terms of looks. It's smooth, well textured and built. Overall very nice look to it.
It's animations for docking and in use are well done too, very fluid. From pulling it off the avatar's back to putting it back on, it's almost seamless. Very well scripted too. Great to use, or just wear as a prop. Overall, I'm very pleased with this. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a fireaxe for fighting, rp, or anything in between.
Wonderful Axe! Even more wonderful customer service!
I bought two of these. One for my wife and one for myself. I was impressed with the features and it does pack a wallop..Not much on most zombies I have encountered. But they state that in the description clearly. It's enough to make a dent though. Plus it looks great as part of a survivalist gear set..What idiot wouldn't carry an axe?
RP and PVP it's great. And if a zombie sneaks up on you..You are not unarmed.
Also, I had a issue with the axe and it was quickly addressed, and politely by the maker and his associate. It wasn't a problem that anyone would have now.
Excellent weapon and perfect customer service.
I highly recommend this for RP and PVP and even the stray zombie..It's a steal at 150 Linden.

Built by a great dedicated team, who responded quickly to my questions. This was designed for people, but also works on the zombie bots. This is the one weapon to always have on you as a primary or a backup. If you kill zombies, you must own this weapon.
Excellent
I've bought a lot of melee weapons, however I consider this to be the best most well done one that I own. The animations are fluid, not clunky or way too fast like a lot of melee weapons. If you buy this axe your going to love it. end of story
