Butcher's Pupil is an exceptional unique Cleaver, a type of axe from Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.

With fairly high damage for a one-handed weapon, the Butcher's Pupil is a useful weapon. Compounded with its chances of inflicting Deadly Strike or Open Wounds, the Butcher's Pupil can rack up a surprising amount of damage. It is a worthy successor to The Butcher's Cleaver from Diablo.

The Butcher's Pupil cannot drop as Ethereal, since it has a default Indestructible mod.
