A '''pick''' is a tool used by [[dwarves]] to [[mining|mine]] areas you have designated for mining.  Dwarves without picks cannot mine.  Picks can be made from [[copper]], [[bronze]], [[bismuth bronze]], [[iron]], or [[steel]].  The material used only affects the weight of the pick and the damage it deals when used in combat; mining speed and product are not affected.

[[Miner]]s can use picks as [[weapon]]s using their mining skill.  Only a dwarf who is set to fight "unarmed" and who is holding a pick at the time he or she is drafted will use it in combat.  Picks are somewhat weaker than actual weapons like spears, but are still very effective in the hands of a skilled miner.  Because miners improve their skill quickly and without military training, and because they always carry their pick with them, they are very capable in an emergency.  Just remember that they do not typically wear armor, so sending a miner into combat carelessly can result in injury or death.
