How to Use Hatchets

Chop Down Trees to Obtain Lumber

Chopping Trees

You can use the hatchet to chop down trees and get lumber. Equipping better hatchets will allow you to get more wood while chopping trees.

You can also get tree saplings from chopping wood which you can then plant in your farms.

How to Upgrade Hatchet

Raise Village Level to Get Recipes

Hatchet Upgrade

You can upgrade your hatchet once you get the corresponding recipe to craft a new one and have all the materials needed.

You need to raise Summer Village's Village Level to get the recipes for these upgrades; they will not be unlocked from Wayside Shrines or Frog Statues.

Once you get the recipe, head to a Blacksmith and choose 'Forge', then 'Forge Tools'.
