I don't know if it's just me or what but Wood Axes have always been rarer than the regular Axe in all of my playthroughs, plus (as far as I know) only Hand Axes and Fire Axes can be found sticking into zombies, but maybe I'm wrong on that. Yeah I've only ever chopped trees with a Hand Axe in emergencies or during the hobo mode of the early game really. It's a powerful one shot one kill weapon with high Axe skill and Strength though, but not good at tackling large hordes in prolonged engagements. Wood Axe is a good weapon if you're a Lumberjack since it swings quite quickly, but at the same time it will exert you heavily even with high Athletics, so there is that. I guess if you can't then strike them off the list of potential weapons to save repair stuff for, lol. Honestly I've never tried repairing a Sledgehammer either really. Besides, Crafted Spear does a similar job and, despite being fragile, you can make a lot of them for cheap. Garden Fork isn't bad, but you're better off saving your repair materials on weapons with better condition and condition-lower chance. I like Spears and Short Blunt (for not tearing holes into good clothes that zombies are wearing). I actually have a Machete, but I've never bothered to use it. I didn't know about Machete, either, but I just figured it couldn't because (I think) it's a strong weapon, like the Katana, and the devs thought it would be imbalanced. Sledgehammers can be repaired? Man, I've been using one and the option to repair never shows up, so I just figured it can't be repaired. Can the Machete even be repaired? I know the Katana can't, but I'm not a Long Blades user myself. Originally posted by Greb:Maybe the Machete, Pickaxe and Pitchfork then, those are decent weapons with sort of limited, rare quantities which are worth keeping around. In practice I'll horde every scrap of repair material I find and have every Axe I could wish for but still use a Crowbar anyway. So basically nothing is worth repairing, making stuff like wood glue and duct tape have no value, which also means everything is worth repairing, because stuff like wood glue and duct tape aren't worth hoarding. Worth repairing a Nail Bat if you've made one so it lasts longer, possibly? I never seem to find many Baseball Bats, but it's not like I check many sporting good stores, I only find them in Bars when I'm scrounging for alcohol and cigarettes - so maybe they're not too rare.but they're a good weapon. Gym stuff like barbells and dumbbells maybe? I dunno if they can even be repaired or used as a weapon, and even if they can you can probably exercise just fine with a 1% condition barbell with the same efficiency as a 100% condition barbell, so repairing it is probably not necessary unless for some reason you want it at 100% condition for your mental wellbeing or something. They have insanely good condition loss rate, but it still wears down if you're destroying like 200+ pieces of whatever to make room for a project or something. Sledgehammers if you're doing massive construction work and you only have one of them. To that extent, possibly a Machete Spear or something of that ilk, I know spears took a knock in power recently due to the weight changes, but they're still probably pretty good in a fight even without having low weight on 'em. Maybe the Machete, Pickaxe and Pitchfork then, those are decent weapons with sort of limited, rare quantities which are worth keeping around. Though that also means repairing the Wood Axe is kinda pointless because you can just use Hand Axes or Fire Axes for your tree work, which are in plentiful supply - or even forage up some stones and make stone ones. Everything else can be gotten in large quantities, and stuff like the Fire Axe is infinite anyway.
