Baseball Bat Axe
The Baseball Bat Axe is a crafted melee weapon: a wooden bat with a saw blade bolted on. The recipe sits in the bunker of the fourth Ambush Camp you clear. It hits much harder than a spiked bat for almost the same parts.

Good to know
- Recipe: 1 wooden bat, 1 saw blade, 1 scrap.
- The recipe is in the bunker of the fourth Ambush Camp you clear.
- Learning it also unlocks the Stool Leg Axe, Fence Post Axe and 2x4 Axe.
- All four axe variants share the same damage, durability and stopping power.
How to get it
Burn out Ambush Camps and loot each bunker. The fourth one you clear holds this recipe, no matter which camp it is.
What it's good for
It kills Swarmers and humans in fewer hits than blunt weapons. It is a good everyday weapon once saw blades are easy to find. Pick fights with Breakers using guns, not this.
Compared with other melee upgrades
Any of the four axe variants does the same job, so craft from whichever wooden base you carry. The Superior Club and found Superior weapons last longer.
