The bronze axe is the weakest axe in Old School RuneScape. It can be wielded for combat, or used to cut trees in Woodcutting. It requires an Attack level of 1 to be equipped, and a Woodcutting level of 1 to be used.
Players can make a bronze axe with the Smithing skill at level 1 using one bronze bar, giving the player 12.5 Smithing experience. Players can take one for free from logs found at various locations, such as at the chicken farm by the Lumbridge cow field, or Fred the Farmer's house. One can also be obtained by talking to the Woodsman tutor.
Various activities require the use of an any axe, such as chopping Kraken tentacles on the Fishing Trawler, defeating the growthlings during the Bryophyta boss fight, or cutting bruma roots to fight Wintertodt. A bronze axe is available to the player from the nearby environment in these activities: on the Fishing Trawler from a crate marked axes, at Bryophyta from a pile of logs, and at Wintertodt from a crate.
