0002418: Giant axe blade and Large serrated disc have equal ATTACK, different HITS
Both Giant axe blade and Large serrated disc have equal damage according to raws^ [ATTACK:EDGE:100000:10000:slash:slashes:NO_SUB:1000] / [ATTACK:EDGE:100000:10000:saw:saws:NO_SUB:1000]

But disc has three hits and axe blade has only one, which makes axe blade useless in comparison.
See raws, item_trapcomp.txt

The giant axe blade weighs 1.6 times as much, which means it will do more damage per hit. Also, this is purely a balance issue and not a bug, which means it goes in Suggestions: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?board=5.0 [^]
