Golden war axes of the Death Knight.

A pair of weapons made to be wielded in both hands.

Crackles with lightning, the power of the capital's ancient dragon cult.

The knight, once the personal guard of Godwyn, was also the protector of the Prince of Deah's cadaver surrogate.

In Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, the Death Knight's Twin Axes is a new weapon of the axe weapon type. As heavy weapons are used in both hands, it can take some getting used to the speed at which you can swing them, but getting a direct hit is going to take a big chunk of health away from your enemies.

The Death Knight's Twin Axes can be upgraded using Smithing Stones to +10, so make sure you have a couple of those handy if you want to see its full potential.
