The Ebony War Axe is a one-handed weapon available in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Locations[]
Unenchanted ebony war axes generally begin to appear throughout Skyrim at level 36 and enchanted war axes can be found at level 37. These locations include:
- Blacksmiths and general goods merchants.
- Wielded by various characters, particularly hostile ones, such as Draugr Death Overlords and Draugr Deathlords at level 30 and above.
- Arcwind Point
- Ansilvund – Holgeir

Smithing[]
This war axe requires a Smithing level of 80 and the Ebony Smithing perk to create. It is made at a blacksmith's forge with the following components:
- 2 x Ebony Ingots
- 2 x Leather Strips
It can be upgraded with an ebony ingot at a grindstone and also benefits from the Ebony Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.
Trivia[]
- The ebony war axe is equal to its Daedric war axe counterpart in statistics, aside from a lower weight, making upgrading to Daedric a matter of personal preference rather than of statistical superiority.
- The ebony war axe also has the same base damage as the Stalhrim war axe, but weighs slightly more.
