The '''Chainaxe''' is the favored weapon of the [[Khorne Berzerker|Khornate Berzerkers]]s. It takes the form of an axe with motorized chainsaw teeth and is able to tear through both flesh and armour with relative ease.

The Chainaxe has long been closely associated with the [[World Eaters]] Legion. In the last ten thousand years however, as Khornate [[Berzerker]]s Berzerkers arise in other Legions, the weapon has become more widely used among Chaos forces as a whole.

Before the [[Horus Heresy]], the Chainaxe was commonly issued to Marine assault squads during the [[Great Crusade]]. A handful of assault oriented Space Marine chapters such as the [[Flesh Tearers]] have been known to still utilize them on occasion.^{{Fn|3}}

A '''Khornate Chainaxe''' is a heavier and more powerful version used by Khornate Berzerkers, effective at penetrating heavy armour.^{{Fn|2}}

'''Gorechild''' is a huge and ancient chainaxe wielded by [[Khârn|Khârn the Betrayer]].^{{Fn|1}}
