Sorry I'm super new and can't make one yet and haven't seen one in the stalls, anyone want to trade me a pickaxe or sell me one

If your really new, I would suggest perhaps using a crude axe, much cheaper to make, and if you die or loose it then you dont have that loss to deal with. But if you truly want one I am sure you can get one for around 300 silver.

I don't mean to deter you, just watching out for new guys buying nice items right off. I think the only true need of a pick is to chip a bit faster, and you NEED one for mining in a mine. Otherwise other ways work.

I think a shovel will work as well for mining (at least it used to, just drains more phlegm) so the easiest way is to mine for your own metal and make some, and use the throwaway versions of the tool until that point.

PM me an offer if you're still looking for a pickaxe. I'll trade or sell.
