Fire Axe (Fallout: New Vegas)

The fire axe is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The fire axe has a whirlwind attack capable of hitting everything in a small area around the charging Courier (outside of V.A.T.S.). To use it, hold down the attack button while running forward in third person. While using V.A.T.S., a special attack named 'Mauler', which does 50% damage (requires 50 Melee) can knock enemies down, but costs 27 action points. 'Mauler' will sometimes knock a weapon out of an enemies hand instead of knocking them down. If you dismember an opponent, the fire axe will have a blood stain on the blade, which will disappear in a matter of seconds.
