	The '''handaxe''' is a [[Edged Weapons\|One-handed edged weapon]] which consists of a single-bladed head and a short haft, or handle. The haft is often gently curved to facilitate swinging the weapon in a single direction, however, handaxes are also often tools that, while one side is a blade, the other side is used as a hammer. Since handaxes inflict only [[slash]] and [[crush]] critical injuries, they are often the [[Edged Weapons\|OHE]] user's weapon of choice when engaging targets that are resistant to [[puncture]] critical injuries.
