In Estonian: Aga kas sa tead , kas nimes on vahe ka , et kas nagu "pickaxe handle" või lihtalt "axe handle" ?
In english: Is there a difference between "axe handle" or "pickaxe handle" ?
(Too lazy to check) . :p

So axe handles are discontinued , and i shall become rich , lala , jkjk . We'll see . ;)

So you mean hatchet handles are still existent? I thought they disappeared.

No, axe handles were removed from the game completely. If you really have some then you probably can't trade it anyway. Pickaxe handles are different from axe handles in that they attach with a pickaxe head and not an axe head. Those are still in the game.

problem i think heads are no more existing for axes so i think same for handles and pick heads when they do the same

Okay , I shall not become rich.
But why did they remove that , it was good against macroers ? :o

Jagex said that they were going to be removing some minor randoms, and so they have. That's the reason. We'll probably be seeing more of this happening.

It was too easy to lose a dragon axe head worth millions, if you were distracted, or not paying attention.

And even if there are still discontinued axe handles in the game, they would never be worth millions because Jagex now effectively has price controls over all items through their grand exchange values.

They could start dropping prices for all discontinued rares by 5% per month and there's nothing anybody could do about it.

i dont think axe handles are tradeable.. i looked for em in ge and there not there? :|

That would really suck for all those people stocking up on rares. lol. Honestly I think that I'm going to sell mine, they might gain value with time but you never know when jagex is going to pull something like that.
EDIT: No, I don't have expensive rares I'm not that rich, just a couple pumpkins lol.

no jagex stated they wont have no more discont. items idk why :S

i seen it on the forums , and the rest are scams i remember ppl said something about a iron something/robins/fury and so on…. is going to be discont. ppl went crazy buying and brought value a bit up and than jagex declared it was a huge lie.

yeah there will no longer any discontinued items coming out, so yeah…..
