Weapons.(1st Part)

Axe:An axe is a weapon found in some Hunger Games. It would be found in the Cornucopia. The axe is likely to be used by the District 7 tributes like Johanna Mason, due to their focus on lumber. It is also the weapon that Haymitch Abernathy used to defeat to the District 1 female tribute in the 50th Hunger Games.




Awl: An awl is a tool with a blade like a screwdriver and a handle made from wood or plastic. An awl is usually used to poke holes in wood or leather, but it can also be used as a weapon.




Blowgun: The blowgun is a handheld weapon that, when blown into, shoots out darts




Arrow & Bow: The bow is mostly a springy piece of wood, usually ash or yew, with the ends tightly connected by catgut or a linen string coated in beeswax. The arrows are straight pieces of wood tipped with sharp bits of metal or stone and fletched with goose feathers or plastic. A bow's power is expressed in pounds, being the strength with which the user has to pull to bring the bow back to a certain extent




Dagger: A dagger is a double-edged fighting knife with a central spine and full-length cutting edges. It differs from a regular knife in that it has a double-edged blade. A knife is a tool as well as a piece of silverware, and although it can be used as a weapon, this is not its primary function. A dagger's sharply pointed dual-edged blade allows it to be used either for slashing cuts or for thrusts to an opponent's body. The blade is similar to that of a sword, but much shorter.


Knife: A knife is a sharp blade with a handle. It is used as a weapon, a piece of silverware, and a useful tool. Although Katniss prefers her bow, she uses knives on more than one occasion, including when she drops a tracker jacker nest on the Career pack.


Mace: A mace is a heavy wooden club with a spiked metal end. In one unidentified Games, maces were the only weapons in the Cornucopia. It is not said if there were any supplies or only maces. It is unknown if anyone in the 74th or 75th Hunger Games used them.


Net: A net is a bag or other contrivance of strong thread or cord worked into an open, meshed fabric, for catching fish, birds, or other animals


Slingshot: A slingshot is a projectile weapon that can be used to fling small objects, such as stones, short distances. Skilled slingshot users, such as Rue, are highly accurate and can hit a target with each shot.
