 Overview: 

 PROS: - High Damage - Good Knockback  (vs other axes) - Very Accurate - Noiseless 

 CONS: - Short Reach - Low Move Speed Penalty 

 TACTICS: While powerful enough to kill a zombie with one strike and possessing a decently fast strike, the Fire Axe suffers from being limited to melee range, which almost guarantees that zombies will be able to get a strike in before its wielder can. Recommended gear: - Vest 

 BACKGROUND: A multi-purpose tool used by mountaineers to climb steep cliffs and hack away at icy obstacles, making it easier to traverse the frozen obstacle courses barring their way. Though mountain climbing has fallen out of favor these days, something that can punch through solid ice can penetrate a human skull just as effectively, as the assassination of a certain Russian exile in Mexico attests.
