Game	Description
	A large axe of the type typically carried by bandits.^[1]

The Bandit axe has an Attack bonus of +55 and can only be equipped by Yangus. It can be received once from Dodgy Dave in Pickham for turning in a Ring of immunity.

The axe can be made in the Alchemy Pot and can also be used to create Bandit mail. It can be sold for 6,500 gold coins for the first five. Due to the ease of production for this weapon, the game is programmed in such a way as to diminish the sales value of the weapon so that the sixth through ninth units sold yield 4,550, the tenth onward a mere 1,950 gold coins.
