Rookie Axe

The Rookie Axe is a stone axe that comes with a Efficiency I Enchantment. It can be purchased from the Lumber Merchant for 12 coins. A much better axe for beginners is the Promising Axe, which gains Efficiency I after breaking 50 blocks and Efficiency II after breaking 200 blocks for only 35 coins.

If enchanted with Efficiency V it consumes the 29 experience levels to enchant but does not actually receive the enchantment, and can be reenchanted over again with Efficiency V.

The Rookie Axe is often regarded as one of the most low tier tools in the game, mostly for its bad enchantment and cheap price.
