It's an axe, why does it matter if it's rusty. It doesn't cut, it cleaves.
I suppose that's my dramatic way of implying the axe is dull, plus I think we're both referring to different axes. A executioner's axe, which I was thinking of, was supposed to slice cleanly through the neck.
Why not a rusty axe instead?
Still too quick.
A rusty soup spoon.
It will take a lot of time.
