The Iron Battleaxe is a two-handed weapon in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It is one of the most common weapons available, being among the first to which the Dragonborn has access.
Locations[]
Both enchanted and unenchanted battleaxes are available throughout Skyrim from level 1. These locations include:
- Blacksmiths and general goods merchants.
- Wielded by various characters and enemies.
- Found as random loot in chests or as a world item throughout Skyrim.
Smithing[]
An iron battleaxe can be crafted without any Smithing perks. It can be forged at a blacksmith's forge with the following components:
- 4 x Iron Ingots
- 2 x Leather Strips
It can be upgraded with an iron ingot at a grindstone; however, it does not benefit from any Smithing perks.
