I recently decided to use this weapon on a whim, and to my surprise it actually seemed to be really good. The AR at 40 DEX is comparable to that of the Butcher's Knife at 40 STR, for starters. (Butcher's Knife only slightly outdamages it) It also seems to have considerably faster attack speed and slightly longer reach than most axes. The only downside seems to be a pretty bad R2 moveset.
Why isn't this weapon more widely used? Is there something about it that is actually really bad that I've missed? Or are axes in general just unpopular?
