    The damage of it is pretty good to be honest.

    If i fight Katana vs Waraxe it seems like the axe is doing slightly more damage, but they are pretty comparable i believe.

    It totally depends on the armor of what you're hitting. War axe has the same average base damage as the war fork, but the war axe is about 10% slower in swing speed. And since the war fork rolls less dice, it will punch through armor more often.

    Against a well armored opponent, I think the war axe is most similar to the scimitar and thus a little worse than the cutlass and broad sword. I think a katana will do more DPS against anything with less than 60 AR.

    yeah, i did it with 31AR Barbed Suits, but the damage will fall off against monsters or opponents with a higher value.

    Scimitar is probably the closest

    edit: Yea, what Dalavar said.
