A '''weapon-tool''' is a [[tool]] that is especially useful as a weapon. Weapon-tools can be enchanted under the same rules as regular [[weapon]]s, will weld to the hands if cursed, and have weapon [[skill]]s.

A tool is defined as a weapon-tool if it has a weapon skill.<ref>{{sourcecode|obj.h|160}}</ref>

Weapon-tools in vanilla NetHack are:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Item !! Skill !! Bimanual || Erosion
|-
|[[pick-axe]] || pick-axe || no || rust, corrode
|-
|[[grappling hook]] || flail || no || rust, corrode
|-
|[[unicorn horn]] || unicorn horn || yes || none
|-
|}

+A '''weapon-tool''' is a type of [[tool]] in ''[[NetHack]]'' that functions in the same manner as a [[weapon]]:{{refsrc|include/obj.h|189|nethack=3.6.7|comment=<tt>is_weptool</tt>}} a weapon-tool has an accompanying weapon [[skill]], can be enchanted under the same rules as regular weapons, and a cursed weapon-tool will weld to the hand(s) of a [[hero]] or [[monster]] that [[wield]]s one.

-Note that the [[dwarvish mattock]], despite being usable in exactly the same way as a pick-axe and using the same weapon skill, is actually classified as a weapon. Also, [[axe]]s and [[battle-axe]]s can be {{kbd|a}}[[apply|pplied]] to break down doors, but are not tools.  A [[tin opener]], on the other hand, must be wielded before being used and will also weld if cursed, but isn't really a weapon.
+There are weapons and tools that have functional similarities, but are not themselves weapon-tools:
