This is a list of all Axe class pieces of [[equipment]] in [[Golden Sun]] and [[Golden Sun: The Lost Age]]. All of the following axes are equippable by [[Isaac]], [[Garet]], [[Felix]], and [[Piers]].
Weapons in ''[[Golden Sun]]'' and ''[[Golden Sun: The Lost Age]]'' belong to five classes which distinguish themselves by which individual Adepts can equip them and how the weapons appear in the hands of Adepts during battle sequences. The weapons listed here belong to the Axe class of weapons, and as such they are equippable by the warrior Adepts in each game: [[Isaac]] and [[Garet]] in the first game, together with [[Felix]] and [[Piers]] in the second.  


[[Image:Battle Axe.gif]] '''Battle Axe''': Attack +24: Price 280: Sold in [[Vault]], [[Bilibin]], [[Imil]], [[Madra]], [[Alhafra]], and [[Garoh]].<br/>
All weapons that are counted as "common weapons" are weapons that can be bought in unlimited quantities in a weapon vendor's Buy menu and are sold without event. All weapons that are counted as Artifacts are special, stronger weapons that do not appear in the Buy menu. These are bought and sold individually and usually are unique, and if one appears in the Artifacts menu of a town's vendor that one weapon can be bought by itself and then be sold by itself anytime afterwards to reappear in the Artifacts menu. The vendor shopkeeper will specifically remark about how rare a find your Artifact is whenever you specifically sell one.
[[Image:Broad Axe.gif]] '''Broad Axe''': Attack +50: Price 1400: Sold in [[Kolima]], [[Xian]], [[Altin]], [[Mikasalla]], [[Naribwe]], [[Kibombo]], and [[Yallam]].<br/>
[[Image:Great Axe.gif]] '''Great Axe''': Attack +80: Price 5200: Sold in [[Kalay]], [[Tolbi]], [[Lunpa (Town)|Lunpa]], [[Lalivero]], and [[Contigo]].  


The prices the games assign to each weapon are quite reliable indicators of how good each weapon is as they measure against each other in actual battle, in most cases. A weapon that is priced higher than another is generally superior to that other weapon even if the other weapon has a higher physical attack rating than the more expensive weapon. Therefore, the following weapons are all arranged by price.

Weapons in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age belong to five classes which distinguish themselves by which individual Adepts can equip them and how the weapons appear in the hands of Adepts during battle sequences. The weapons listed here belong to the Axe class of weapons, and as such they are equippable by the warrior Adepts in each game: Isaac and Garet in the first game, together with Felix and Piers in the second.

All weapons that are counted as "common weapons" are weapons that can be bought in unlimited quantities in a weapon vendor's Buy menu and are sold without event. All weapons that are counted as Artifacts are special, stronger weapons that do not appear in the Buy menu. These are bought and sold individually and usually are unique, and if one appears in the Artifacts menu of a town's vendor that one weapon can be bought by itself and then be sold by itself anytime afterwards to reappear in the Artifacts menu. The vendor shopkeeper will specifically remark about how rare a find your Artifact is whenever you specifically sell one.

The prices the games assign to each weapon are quite reliable indicators of how good each weapon is as they measure against each other in actual battle, in most cases. A weapon that is priced higher than another is generally superior to that other weapon even if the other weapon has a higher physical attack rating than the more expensive weapon. Therefore, the following weapons are all arranged by price.
