	Like many exotic weapons, the hooked axe looks deceptively simple. It's just a battleaxe with a funny blade, right? Indeed, a character with martial weapons skill can use a hooked axe just fine, and it acts exactly as a battleaxe when so used. In the hands of a skilled user, however, the hooked axe is revealed as a grappling hook of deadly ability. The hooked axe can catch a wrist to disarm a foe, or catch an ankle to trip, and it looks darn good doing it, too. The Hooked Axe belongs to the "Axes" weapon group, and is treated as a slashing weapon for the application of Weapon Properties, Feats, Dweomermetals and all other effects.
