Non-Raid Transmog Weapons: One-Hand Axes
There are SO MANY cool-looking axes, so rather than try to cover them all, I'll try to list some fun options and ones that you might not know existed.
Non-Raid One-Hand Axes | |
 | Driftwood Club Required Level: 10 Source: Bind-on-Equip Ruumbo's Arm Required Level: 44 Source: Quest Anvilmar Hammer Required Level: 69 Source: Bind-on-Equip |
 | Abomination Cleaver Required Level: 16 Source: Bind-on-Equip A simple but fun look. Bloody! Readily available on the AH. |
| Butcher's Cleaver Required Level: 16 Source: Shadowfang Keep Easily farmed, with a 24% drop rate. Glutton's Cleaver Required Level: 40 Source: Razorfen Downs A cakewalk to obtain, as this boss has only two blue drops, one of which is its cleaver. |
 | Hacking Cleaver Required Level: 28 Source: Bind-on-Equip A bloodless version of the cleaver. |
 | Ebonclaw Reaver Required Level: 41 Source: Bind-on-Equip Eater of the Dead Required Level: 50 Source: Sunken Temple Easily farmed, with a 32% drop rate. |
 | Power of the Hippogryph Required Level: 35 Source: Quest (Horde, Alliance) Tooth of Eranikus Required Level: 50 Source: Sunken Temple 27% drop rate. Amani Venom-Axe Required Level: 66 Source: Escape from Durnholde 19% drop rate. |
 | The Harvester of Souls Required Level: 70 Source: Heroic Auchenai Crypts 15% drop rate. Breeching Comet Required Level: 70 Source: Heroic Magister's Terrace 24% drop rate. |
 | Stellaris Required Level: 70 Source: The Mechanar (Normal or Heroic) 18% drop rate on Normal, 19% on Heroic. |
 | Fel Edged Battleaxe Required Level: 70 Source: Blacksmithing It might be a pain to find someone who can make this, and the mats (especially Primal Mights) are pretty expensive. Still, quite nice looking. |
 | Frostbite Required Level: 60 Source: Vendor (Horde) This nice looking axe is perfect for Frost DKs, and is available at an early level. It costs 175 Honor and can be purchased at the Alterac Valley quartermaster in Hillsbrad. It is Horde-only. |
 | Resonating Axe Required Level: 67 Source: Quest (Aldor) This unusual axe is Aldor-only, and comes from a simple quest in Netherstorm. One of only two axes with this model, and the other is a two-hander. |
 | Stalactite Chopper Required Level: 80 Source: Vendor This axe is HUGE. It requires Revered with Sons of Hodir, and the base price is 59g 7s 32c. |
 | The Key Required Level: 80 Source: Heroic Violet Hold Great looking axe, but a pain to get due to Violet Hold's random boss mechanic. It drops from Lavanthor, at a 30% drop rate. |
 | Axe of Rin'ji Required Level: 48 Source: Bind-on-Equip |
 | Warlord's Axe Required Level: 53 Source: Bind-on-Equip |
 | Felstone Reaver Required Level: 56 Source: Bind-on-Equip |
 | Kingly Axe Required Level: 61 Source: Bind-on-Equip Bladespire Broadaxe Required Level: 67 Source: Bind-on-Equip The Bladespire Broadaxe has a SLIGHTLY more reddish/orange color. |
 | Bogreaver Required Level: 70 Source: Heroic Underbog A unique axe model, this has a low 15% drop rate. |
 | Crescent of Brooding Fury Required Level: 74 Source: Quest Reward for killing Ragemane in Zul'Drak. There is also a recolor available from Heroic Oculus, but screw that noise. |
 | Notched Cobalt War Axe Required Level: 73 Source: Blacksmithing Surprisingly detailed axe model. There are also a billion Bind-on-Equip variations with slight color differences, all green quality between levels 70-80: Bone Cleaver, Dire Axe, Disk Axe, Skeletal Hacker, Snowy Edge. |
 | Falric's Wrist-Chopper Required Level: 80 Source: Heroic Halls of Reflection I'm not sure how easy this would be to solo at 85, but this is an amazing, and large, model. 29% drop rate, and bonus, Falric is the first boss. |
 | Hate-Forged Cleaver Required Level: 80 Source: Halls of Reflection Has a 21% drop rate from completing Halls of Reflection on Normal difficulty. Unique model. Looks like a parrot. |
 | Nighttime Required Level: 80 Source: Heroic Forge of Souls Nice looking unique model. Drops off the first boss (Bronjahm) at a 17% drop rate on Heroic difficulty. |
 | Axe of the Sen'jin Protector Required Level: 80 Source: Vendor (Horde) This axe is purchasable from the various city quartermasters at the Argent Tournament, for 25 Champion's Seals. It has a unique model and is Horde-only. |
 | Teldrassil Protector Required Level: 80 Source: Vendor (Alliance) This axe is purchasable from the various city quartermasters at the Argent Tournament, for 25 Champion's Seals. It has a unique model and is Alliance-only. |
 | Warbringer Required Level: 70 Source: Vendor (Horde) Unique model, requires Exalted with Thrallmar. Base price is 207g, 99s, 58c. (WTF!) |
 | Firebrand Battleaxe Required Level: 70 Source: Heroic Blood Furnace This...bizarre axe is double-double bladed! It is a unique model, and has a 21% drop rate. |
 | Sun-Forged Cleaver Required Level: 70 Source: Magister's Terrace This nicely detailed yellow/brown axe has a 16% drop rate. It shares a model with Grom'tor's Charge (green blade, Quest reward), and Axe of the Legion (grey blade but with a fiery glow, Bind on Equip). |

Thanks for putting these lists together! I was a bit overwhelmed with the possibilities for my rogue, and these lists give me more manageable targets to work for.
I noticed that the first 3 you list are actually maces, though.
Cheers!
