The Climbing Axe is a tool and a melee weapon added by v0.15 update of The Forest .

Gameplay [ ]

It can be used to climb various rocky cliffs on the peninsula and specific walls in the caves. As a weapon, the climbing axe deals less damage than the plane axe, but swings fast like the Katana. It can be a useful weapon against fast and weak enemies, like starving cannibals. However, it cannot be upgraded. It can be used to chop limbs on cannibals corpses, but cannot be used to chop down trees.

The climbing axe allows the player to climb walls, provided they are at a climbable wall. Climbable walls generally look flat and have a different color to the other cave walls. As well as that, they usually have bits of rope attached to the wall, which also act as a guide for climbing, showing where to detach from the wall. When prompted, attach onto a wall by pressing your use button (E by default). You can't use it to climb rocks, walls, and mountains in the snow biome at the northern side of the Peninsula, this is probably to prevent the player from accessing areas not meant to be gone through, especially the parts of the Sahara Laboratory during early game. You also can't use it to go down the Sinkhole directly from the the forest floor, the same reason goes as it prevents the player from accessing the end game area during early game. Be careful though, if you fall into the Sinkhole, You CANNOT get out with the climbing axe!

Location [ ]

The Climbing Axe is located in the Ledge Cave (Cave 9). The entrance can be found here . It is located near the end of the cave, lighted on a wall.

It is also possible to start at the cave 9 exit located here as a shortcut. It is normally not possible to go down without the climbing axe, but if you jump carefully on the walls you should be able to go down without trouble. Then follow the path until you reach the climbing axe area.

You can enter the end of Cave 9 from Cave 3 by blowing up a wall with dynamite at the of Cave 3.

Trivia [ ]

The in-game model of the Climbing Axe is based on a PETZL "Ergonomic" ice climbing axe. The logo "PETZL" has been changed to "BRGKTZ" in the game.
