Battleaxe is in the Two-Handed Weapons category in Valheim, and every number on this page is read straight from the game files for the current build. That includes the ones the in-game tooltip shows you and the ones it never does: reach, swing arc, how many hits the combo runs to and what the final one multiplies by. Quality 1-4

Battleaxe FAQ
How do you get Battleaxe in Valheim?
Battleaxe is crafted at Forge from Ancient Bark x30, Iron x35, Leather Scraps x4, Iron x1.
What are the stats of Battleaxe in Valheim?
They are listed above, at every quality level Battleaxe reaches. Some of those figures come from Valheim's own item tooltip; the rest — reach, swing arc, combo length, what the secondary attack multiplies — are read from the game files, because the tooltip never shows them.
How much stamina does Battleaxe use per swing?
A swing of Battleaxe costs 16 stamina, with a reach of 2.5 m. Stamina is what actually decides a fight in Valheim rather than raw damage: your food sets the pool, and a weapon that costs less per swing keeps you attacking where a heavier one leaves you standing still waiting to recover.
How much damage does Battleaxe block?
Battleaxe blocks 28, and a parry taken on the right frame multiplies that by 2. Both numbers are then scaled by your Blocking skill, so what is listed here is the floor rather than the ceiling.
Does Battleaxe slow you down?
Battleaxe changes your movement speed by -15%. Valheim adds that figure up across everything equipped — both hands, all four armour slots, the utility slot and the trinket — so a heavy set with a shield reaches a number you can feel, and it applies to the stamina that running and jumping drain as well as to speed.
How much durability does Battleaxe have?
Battleaxe has 200–350 durability, and can be repaired for free at a crafting station that covers it — repairing costs nothing but the trip, so there is never a reason to carry a worn one home.
