Axe

The Axe is a weapon featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Call of Duty: Ghosts.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II
"¡ASQUEROSOS, NO TIENEN ALMA! ¡ANIMALES! ¡MUÉRANSE! (Filthy! Souless! ANIMALS! DIE!)"

- Raul after picking up the Axe.

Campaign
The Axe makes a brief appearance in Call of Duty: Black Ops II. It is only featured once on the campaign level Time and Fate during the part when Raul Menendez is playable. Near the beginning of the level, the player must go up a hill and through a small shack. The axe is inside of the shack, and the pick-up text "Use" appears when reaching it. The player can only use it before the PDF soldiers holding the five civilians captive notice them. If they pick it up, the axe will automatically be thrown to the left-most soldier. They cannot pick it up again after using it or being noticed.

Zombies
In TranZit, at the Hunter's Cabin, there is an axe stuck into a stump outside the cabin. It is cosmetic though, and cannot be used by the player.

Call of Duty: Ghosts
"This will be useful."

- Rorke, after acquiring an axe.

Campaign
A fire axe is used by Rorke to hack a Federation soldier to death in the mission "Legends Never Die". Rorke then discards the axe by dropping it in to the flood water.

Multiplayer
On the map Fog from the Onslaught DLC pack, upon obtaining the Michael Myers Field Order reward, the player is given the weapon to use. It is a one-hit-kill, and victims' "souls" expel out of their bodies upon death. Melee actions with the axe are at an increased speed from the Combat Knife as seen in Multiplayer.

Trivia

 * The Axe is similar to a SOG Tactical Tomahawk from real life.


 * In Call of Duty: Ghosts, the first person model appears to be held with two hands, while the third person model is clearly being held with one. This is because the 3rd person holding animation is shared with the standard knife, while first person is entirely unique.
