The zombie axe is a one-handed axe that requires 65 Attack to wield. It is created by taking a broken zombie axe, obtained as a drop from armoured zombies, to an anvil and repairing it with 70 Smithing.

The axe's strength bonus and slash attack stats are higher than any other one-handed weapon, while its crush attack bonus is only surpassed by the dragon warhammer and inquisitor's mace (not counting PVP-only weapons). Coupled with its 5-tick attack speed, the axe does slightly less average damage than the dragon scimitar against enemies with low to semi-low defence. However, against enemies weak to crush or enemies with higher defence, such as a gargoyle, the axe can potentially deal even more average damage than an abyssal whip. This is particularly useful for midgame ironman players who do not have level 85 Slayer to kill abyssal demons.

The zombie axe has +105 slash bonus which always slashes webs successfully like the Wilderness sword 1, making it a convenient weapon of choice for ironmen to slay Sarachnis.

The zombie axe counts as an axe for fixing bridges when doing Temple Trekking.
