44 The Logging Axe is one of the two most important gathering tools in Crimson Desert, alongside the Pickaxe. It is a basic tool used for chopping wood, with its weight concentrated toward the blade to deliver powerful downward strikes. The Logging Axe is essential for obtaining thick timber, one of the primary materials needed for Refinement upgrades on weapons, armor, and accessories.

1919 Equip the Logging Axe through the Equipment Wheel (hold D-Pad Left / F3 on PC) and approach a tree. Each tree takes about three swings to fell. The Logging Mastery effect improves woodcutting speed, so the more you use the tool, the more efficient gathering becomes.

2121 Wood and timber gathered with the Logging Axe are used at the Smithy for Refinement upgrades. Purchase the Logging Axe as early as possible from the Hernand Provisioner, since you will need wood throughout the entire game.

2323 Alternative Method
2424  
2525 Players who have progressed far enough in the story can use the Turning Slash skill to fell trees without equipping the axe. The skill cuts trees instantly but costs stamina and is less practical for sustained gathering runs.

2727 Refinement
2828  
2929 The Logging Axe can be refined at any Smithy in Pywel, with 10 refinement levels. Higher refinement means faster tree felling and better material yield. The Smithy in Hernand is unlocked after completing Turnali's quest, which asks you to chop a few trees and deliver the wood.

3333 At Attack 8, the Logging Axe can deal some damage as an improvised weapon, but it is far weaker than proper weapons. Stick to your main armament for combat.
