Editing Iron axe (section)

==Characteristics==
The axe's original design consists of a sharpened axe head attached to the top of a wooden handle. The handle has a length of cloth wrapped around the base as a grip. It is described as being heavy and difficult to wield, its usage being restricted to physically strong vocations and characters.

In earlier games, the iron axe is a hand axe, but after ''Dragon Quest VIII'', the iron axe now has a long enough handle to be wielded with two hands. The axe's design was changed once again in ''Dragon Quest X'' so that the entire weapon is made out of metal. The axe head has two grooves in it and the handle has a dark blue grip.
