The tomahawk is a weapon in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. It is a small Native American axe, resembling a hatchet with a straight shaft.

As a melee weapon, the tomahawk is relatively weak; however, when thrown, it can kill a zombie in a single blow.

Its durability can be increased with the Domestic and Blades magazines.
