The longest weapon used by the dwarf, Gimli's Walking Axe is described in many adaptations of 'The Lord of The Rings'. Like other Dwarves, Gimli was fond of axes and held a variety of weapons when he traveled. [1] Gimli was shown in possession of a long-handled ax that doubled as a walking stick to help walk long distances easily through the lands of Middle Earth. This ax added a lot of strength to the dwarf. Just like other axes of the Dwarves, Gimli's Walking Axe was square-edged and featured tightly wrapped leather that prevented the ax from slipping out of the grasp. It was long and could reach farther. This powerful weapon, along with his strength made it possible to attack the enemies at a distance of three feet.
