If you’re eager to get your hands on this axe, read on. We’ll tell you the exact location of this legendary Silver Axe!

Grave

Once you reach the top of the hill in the spot we’ve marked, you should spot a grave. Henry will comment on it, as well, recalling Zdenyek’s story. Walk up to the grave and you’ll get the prompt to dig it up, as long as you bring a Spade.

After digging the grave, interact with the large white sack you dig up. There it is, the legendary Silver Axe! Although it seems to be in poor condition, as it is listed as a “Broken Axe” instead. Nonetheless, Henry will recognize it, so you just need to pick it up.

Adorned Axe Recipe

Now, that’s the location itself. However, you’ll also need to repair the axe to restore it to its former glory. To do so, just take it to any Blacksmith and use their anvil. You should see the “Adorned Axe” as a recipe now, requiring the Broken Axe and 1 Fastening Material. If you don’t have the Fastening Material, every Blacksmith sells them and they’re extremely cheap.
