A traditional chopping axe with comfortable handle and a glinting edge that never dulls. The axe intuitively transitions from a thin to stout edge, depending on the task at hand. The wielder of the axe will tire more slowly than usual when chopping trees or wood, and the handle will not blister the skin over time. While the Woodsman's Axe is relatively ineffective as a combat weapon, it does deal an extra 1d12 of slashing damage against enemies made of wood, bark, or twigs.
The Woodsman's Axe also grants the ability for a wielder to cast the Speak with Plants spell with a spoken word once per long rest. However, trees in particular are unlikely to be friendly towards the wielder, granting Disadvantage on Persuasion Checks and granting Advantage on Intimidation Checks when speaking with trees. It is unclear if the effect was intended by the creator as a tool, jape, or curse.
This very accommodating axe grants proficiency to any wielder.
