This article is about the free-to-play guide. For the members' guide, see Pay-to-play Woodcutting training.

Equipment

An axe is the tool required to train Woodcutting. There are many different types of axes available to free players, ranging from bronze to rune. It is recommended that players always use the best axe available at their level as a better axe improves woodcutting speed. Axes do not have to be wielded, although wielding one is best as it frees up an inventory space in a player's backpack. Axes can be wielded with the required Attack level for the metal they are made of. A Woodcutting level of 41 allows players to use rune axes, the best axe available to free players.
