Overview

In-game description

A salvaged piece of concrete and rebar which can be used to harvest wood

For the first hour of a wipe, when you have no bench yet and are tired of hitting trees with a rock. On paper it is the stone hatchet in another shape, so the comparison that matters is with the metal tool you craft next.

Tool	Bench	Cost	Durability
Stone Hatchet	none	100 stones, 200 wood	100
Concrete Hatchet	none	100 stones, 200 wood	100
Hatchet	Level 1	75 frags, 100 wood	400

With a rock in hand, 100 stones and 200 wood take a few minutes to gather, and both stone-age versions wear out fast. That wear is your cue to put down a bench and move up.

It has a matching Concrete Pickaxe. How you unlock the concrete pair is not in the data, so check your crafting menu before you plan around it.
