Bladed axes

Bladed Axes
"We hated it (Killerhurtz's spiked axe). We decided to add this broad blade axe so it wouldn't get stuck, it would just keep digging at them..."

- John Reid after defeating Panic Attack

Bladed axes are relatively different from spiked axes. They do have a sharp area, but the amount of surface area at the tip of the blade is increased to provide a larger area of attack. This was used successfully by Terrorhurtz to damage Panic Attack in Series 6. It's used more as a hacking weapon to hack and damage parts instead of a piercing weapon to put holes in them. A major advantage of bladed axes is the fact that they have large areas and a lot of force behind them. The modern Terrorhurtz, Thor, and Obsidian all use a bladed axe. It is also more effective for self-righting.

However, bladed axes have two flaws. First, they have trouble causing damage to tough robots, such as Storm 2, and second, a bladed axe is not an efficient KO weapon, as it does not put out the kinetic energy into a point needed to knock something loose. Terrorhurtz was the only robot to do this successfully.
