Cut-tooth

“You should fear this axe. When Thorwalers raise their cuttooths, be prepared to die.”
— Nosfiria of Salta, Nostrian soldier, 1036 FB

No other throwing axe has such a terrifying reputation. This Thorwalian version of the throwing axe looks about as dangerous as any other, but its slightly curved handle and rounded blade impart maximum force on impact, and it cuts through armor with ease.

The cut-tooth’s one weakness is its poor accuracy at greater distances. When facing a group of Thorwalers preparing to throw their cut-tooths, however, one usually does not pause to remember this weakness. One runs away, quickly.

“Cut-tooths slice through almost anything: leather, chain, plate, whatever. And I think it is rather accurate, even at long range.”

— Tjalva Garheltsdottir, Hetja of Prem

“I would choose a cut-tooth over a common throwing axe any day. But I disagree with Tjalva. This axe is less accurate at long range.”

— Geron Bladebreaker, mercenary
