The '''Pickaxe''' is a [[Tools|tool]] obtained at the beginning of the game. It is used mainly for breaking [[stone]]s, particularly when [[Mining]], although it has other uses and can also remove certain objects. For example, the pickaxe can be used to pick up placed items, such as floor tiles, [[sprinkler]]s, or [[Crafting#Artisan Equipment|artisan equipment]], much like an [[axe]]. In a similar way, the pickaxe can also strike small plants like [[weeds]] or other [[crops]] on the farm to remove them.

Only the pickaxe can un-till soil that has previously been tilled (ie, 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.
