Only the pickaxe can un-till soil that has previously been tilled (''i.e.,'' it can remove strikes from a [[Hoes|Hoe]]). This process is overall done in two stages; striking once will remove any crops on top, leaving the underlying tilled soil intact (including any [[fertilizer]] present).  Striking a second time tilled soil will revert the tile to an un-tilled state, removing any applied [[fertilizer]]. The pickaxe also applies this two-stage removal process to for items placed on top of floor tiles, while the axe will remove both the object and the floor at once. Also, using the pickaxe on a [[Monsters|Monster]] will deal a small portion of damage, similar to other [[weapons]]. However, another unique use case is hitting a [[Rock Crab|Crab]] 5 times with a pickaxe which will knock off its shell, and cause the crab to flee rather than attack the player.

The Pickaxe may be upgraded at the [[Blacksmith]].  The cost and resource requirements for each upgrade are shown in the table below.  As a summary of the upgrade effects, with each upgrade level the number of hits required to break a stone or [[Mining#Mining Nodes|node]] is reduced, and it becomes possible to break harder types of rocks.
