Milhamah SeriesIf the Property Gnashing Pickax strikes its mark, there goes the neighborhood!
This pickax's terrifying teeth mow down weeds and shrubbery, and they can also crunch through brick and mortar. Demolition crews use this tool to knock down buildings, special forces wield it to destroy enemy arsenals, and bank robbers bring it along to break inside vaults.
However, this weapon comes at a cost: A manufacturer's flaw causes its "mouth" to jam unless the user feeds it regular cash deposits that make a loan shark's interest rates look fair in comparison. That's why some say this sharp-toothed ax works best when eating the rich — literally!
The Property Gnashing Pickax is based on the נכש shoresh root and broader family, which governs pickaxes, biting, nipping pliers, usury, neighbors, dwellings, arsenals, storehouses, weeding and more.
