	==Description==		==Description==
	As a tool created for breaking through hard earth, the head of a pickaxe consists of different edges on opposite ends of bar. One edge is fashioned into a sharp pick while the other is flattened to serve as a chisel. This head, most often but not always forged from metal, is then attached to a handle through a hole at its center. For their role in excavation, pickaxes are heavy, two-handed instruments, and as a result, they can be effectively turned against [[~~humans~~]] to deal lethal injury whether through blunt force trauma or by hacking with the pick end.<ref name="ACU">''[[Assassin's Creed: Unity]]''</ref>		As a tool created for breaking through hard earth, the head of a pickaxe consists of different edges on opposite ends of bar.

	*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'', the pickaxe was a necessary item for completing the [[genetic memory\|memory]] "Digging In" in [[Italian Wars: Chapter 3 – Mario Auditore]]. As a mining episode, it was the chief means by which the player obtained metal ores for [[Crafting (Project Legacy)\|crafting]] weapons and gems for crafting jewelry.
