Survival Hatchet

The Survival Hatchet is a civilian melee weapon and typically found prematurely. It's one of the more commonplace melee weapons; however, it is harder to find than its weaker counterpart, the Screwdriver. The weapon does not carry any attachments, and is unavailable for upgrading.

The hatchet is most effective in short range. For a civilian melee weapon, it fairs above average against the weaker creatures of Bishop, including Infected Livestock or Ruin Spiders. When fighting against players, the hatchet can render itself ineffective if up against a longer ranged weapon.

While the Survival Hatchet requires close combat in order for it to deal damage, it delivers in its power. Moreover, because of its early accessibility, the extra power the weapon carries can be considered a decent advantage. The hatchet can be gathered in commonplace loot chests a short distance away from most spawn areas. Compared to other civilian melee weapons, the Survival Hatchet can be a trustworthy weapon regarding both defensive and offensive purposes. Nonetheless, it is a disposable weapon that can be replaced with the more prominent melee weapons of Bishop. (The Police Baton for example)
