The leaf-bladed battleaxe is one of three melee weapons used to harm turoths and kurasks, the others being the leaf-bladed spear and sword.
The axe requires an Attack level of 65 and a Slayer level of 55 to wield. It is dropped by kurasks located in the Fremennik Slayer Dungeon.
The leaf-bladed battleaxe has the highest melee strength bonus for any one-handed weapon, exceeding the dragon battleaxe, and has lower slash accuracy than its dragon counterpart, although slightly higher crush accuracy. However, unlike other battleaxes, the leaf-bladed battleaxe exhibits a faster attack speed of 5, instead of the usual 4, resulting in significantly more damage per minute. It is sometimes used in high-risk PvP scenarios as it is one of the strongest melee weapons in its price range.
Currently, the maximum possible hit of the leaf-bladed battleaxe is 60.
Combat styles
The leaf-bladed battleaxe is unique when it comes to combat styles because the hack and smash styles are actually swapped, with hack being the slash option and smash being the crush option instead of vice-versa like other battleaxes. Many players get this confused, which results in the battleaxe underperforming.
Chop: Accurate (Slash, Attack XP)
Hack: Aggressive (Slash, Strength XP)
Smash: Aggressive (Crush, Strength XP)
Block: Defensive (Slash, Defence XP)

Trivia
- The attack animation of the battleaxe reuses the one that the various barbarian spirits found in the Ancient Cavern use (such as Angry barbarian spirit).
