Item Locations

• Some of the items are craftable, but all of the items have some sort of spawns, some are more common than others.

• Blacksmith's Hammer, Veteran's Knife, Carpenter's Axe, Bird Statue and Craftsman's Hacksaw have specific spawn points.

• Other items, such as the splitting axe and mountaineer's sleeping bag can be found in many places around a vast selection of regions, so look out for them! (THEY ARE NOT GUARANTEED)

• While the craftable items have some spawn spots, they are usually very very rare, this is intended.
