Ok, that' the real name.
Warning!!! It is quite possible (or even probable) that this is NOT the final version of this weapon!
Here are the details thus far:
Here are screenshots:
Flynn holding his new creation.
Showing off the shiny new axe blade.
The stats (as far as I can tell, just Scythe stats).
Now it's a GUESS that the weapon currently has placeholder stats. I will try to get this confirmed ASAP. Nothing is set until this goes live. Perhaps the intention is simply to give us a lootable scythe or perhaps this is just unfinished content. Note that this is probably a minipublish for AFTER publish 8 so it has a long lifetime yet to go. For now I recommend ooh'ing and aww'ing at the pictures and awaiting more info.
Enjoy!
StGabe.

Here are the details thus far:
- Lootable single use schematic from the new Mandalorian Dungeon (Death Watch).
- Currently requires the exact same stuff as the Scythe.
- Is a 2h weapon, no idea at what level you get proficiency.
- So far it looks to be a copy of the Scythe, only as an axe, and coming from a lootable schematic.

From the picture of the stats its just another version of the Scythe. Medium AP, Kinetic, speed and damage are about the same. Hmm, do we need another Kinetic weapon like this. Hope there are some changes.

It looks cool 
What were the stats of the resources you used to make it?

ok, that axe looks really kick ass. i want one...
one thing though hopefully the ham costs will be re-arranged so the health cost is higher than the action cost, so it fits in more with how the other axes (and the powerhammer) work for ham costs

Well the scythe did not fix us for PvP, nor have they mentioned fixing the doc buffs + compoisite problem, so we are gonna need it to be damage other than kinetic [like stun], higher min damage [for mitigation], main special cost to health [like other axes] and accuracy further into the positives.
Fluff is nice, but balance is more fun/less frustratingoverall.

Well the easiest way to fix something is to throw it in with stats you know are wrong and make changes from there.
As Gabe said, it's identical to the scythe with different graphics at the moment, the resources will probably change to reinforcement cores rather than sword cores since it obviously isn't a sword, as well as changes in the stats and other resources required.
I can't see this thing being stun damage though, can you ?(would be nice if it did say, cold, but I can't see that either)Or even remaining medium AP, with the amount of weight behind the blade it should be able to cut through thicker armour than the scythe, so maybe this will go up toheavy AP, but with higher HAM costs and a slower speed, somewhere between the scythe and power hammer.

I don't know what I would like the stats to be anyway. It looks kinda obvious the damage type will be kinetic again perhaps it will be a bit slower and a bit more damaging than the scythe.
But what I can say the art is excellant its the best looking melee weapon in the game in my opinion.

The damage is alright i guess... just hoping for something a bit more 600 damage-ish? Also I want a bigggggg booty sword (well in this case axe). We need it to be like stun or cold or something, not kinetic!
