Stone Machete

Tool

A machete used to quickly clear plants.

Notes

The Stone Machete is a tier 1 tool for clearing plants, training the Gathering skill on each use. It offers 400 durability and deals minimal damage (1 base, 0.2× vs animals), making it a dedicated harvesting tool rather than a weapon. Early-game players can craft multiple machetes as needed, and they can be salvaged into scrap tool materials.
