The Fire Axe is a melee weapon for the Pyro class. It is a classic chopping axe with a wooden handle.
In most circumstances, the Flamethrower is a much better choice for targets in melee range. The Fire Axe, however, is typically used on unaware enemies and for humiliation purposes as it has a high Critical hit chance. The Critical hit animation for the Fire Axe is a swift right to left horizontal swing.

Trivia
- Typically, fire axes were used by Firefighters to chop through fallen debris and doors in order to rescue trapped people. It is doubtful the Pyro has used his axe to such an extent.
- Although the Pyro's primary and secondary weapons are held in a right-handed grip, the Fire Axe, Axtinguisher, Homewrecker, and Powerjack are all held in a left-handed grip. This may mean that the Pyro is ambidextrous, but it is most likely a developer oversight.
- Although swinging the Fire Axe in player view causes different animations to play, the world view shows the Pyro always using an overhead swing even on Critical hits.
