The Hand Axe (手斧 Te ono) is an Axe that recurrently appears across the Fire Emblem Series. The most basic axe that allows for ranged combat to be engaged in, the Hand Axe is valuable for its ability to counter indirect attacks that are performed on its wielder. This is, however, checked by the fact that the axe is low on both Durability and Might, compelling one to only use it sparingly.

The Short Axe and the Tomahawk may be considered to be the superior counterparts of the Hand Axe.
